Bath re-enamelling near Inchree

Keeping it looking good

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Do not leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
  • Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs straight away
  • A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent

Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, because they can mark the finish. Fix dripping taps quickly.

Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It just wears the enamel further and makes resurfacing more work.

How we handle bath re-enamelling in Inchree

We clean, repair and prime the bath before spraying the new finish. The preparation is what makes it last, so we do not cut corners on it. We work on cast iron baths, basins & shower trays and pressed steel baths, and common reasons people get in touch are chips and rust in more than one place and stains that won’t shift.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Inchree and across Highland.

  • An outdated colour you’d like to change
  • Worn patches where water runs and sits
  • A roll-top that’s seen better days
  • An old resurfacing that’s failing

Our hiring checklist

What bath re-enamelling costs

Prices start from £350. There’s no charge for travel to Inchree. The price depends on:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • What the surface is made of
  • The size and number of damaged areas

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Inchree. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Send photos for a quote

You can take the pictures on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

The process

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. Allow a full day, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.

  1. The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
  2. We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
  3. Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
  4. The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
  5. Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures until the following day.

How to prepare

  • Open a window if you can
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Getting a price

You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Related advice

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

Questions from Inchree

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.

Is there any odour?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.

What does bath re-enamelling cost?

Resurfacing from £350. Every job gets a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your PH33 postcode.

What do you need from me?

Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

Can a failed resurfacing be redone?

Yes, we do this regularly. Stripping the old coating adds time, so it’s reflected in the quote.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Repairs by material

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Roll-top and period baths

We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.

Repairing versus replacing in Inchree

Replacing a bath can take several days across several trades. Resurfacing takes one technician and normally a day, with the bath back in use the next day. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Why choose Surface Doctor in Inchree

  • We leave the room as we found it
  • One visit for most repairs
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Everything repaired in place

Work for landlords and builders

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Highland and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
