DIY kit or professional repair?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
Why repair rather than replace?
A new bath means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, making good the walls and tiles and several days without a working bathroom. Resurfacing renews the whole surface without moving it. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Common questions in Innis nan Lìon
How durable is a resurfaced bath?
That depends on preparation and how the bath is treated. With good preparation and gentle cleaning it lasts a long time, and it’s guaranteed for a year.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Can you change the colour of my bath?
Yes, most people go for white. Tell us what you’d like when you ask for a quote.
Are there extra charges for Innis nan Lìon?
We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you’ll get one combined price.
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners in Innis nan Lìon.
Looking after it afterwards
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
Dry the bath after use if possible, and rinse off any bath products.
The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and any rust spreads underneath. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.
Repairs by material
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
For landlords and businesses
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Highland and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.
