Bath re-enamelling for Inverarish homes

About our bath re-enamelling in Inverarish

Re-enamelling gives a worn bath a new glossy surface without a refit. It suits baths that are dull, stained, rough or chipped all over. If you are dealing with brown or grey marks that don’t clean off and a bath in a colour that no longer suits, we can typically put it right, on Victorian roll-tops, cast iron baths and acrylic baths alike.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll come back.

Can I fix it myself?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

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

What we’re called out for in Inverarish

Once enamel loses its gloss, it stains more easily, and cleaning harder only makes it worse. That is the point where re-enamelling makes sense.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Staining under the taps and around the waste
  • A roll-top that is seen better days
  • Wear marks under the taps
  • A dull, rough surface that won’t come clean

  • Whether the price covers travel
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT

Our hiring checklist

How we price bath re-enamelling

Resurfacing from £350. We price every job individually, from your pictures. What matters most is:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The type of damage
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Access to the area

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Getting a price from photos

When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • One picture of the whole bath
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Common questions in Inverarish

Do the materials smell?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working, which fades afterwards.

Do you work in Inverarish?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Inverarish and the rest of Highland. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

What information do you need?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole bath and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Does re-enamelling smell?

A little, during the work. We set up ventilation and the smell fades as it cures.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.

Can you make a coloured bath white?

Yes. Coloured baths can be resurfaced in white, and we can do the rest of the suite as well.

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners.

Keeping it looking good

To keep it looking its best:

  • Fix dripping taps quickly
  • Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
  • Avoid suction-cup mats
  • Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners

Give the finish its full curing time before using the bath. Then, gentle cleaning with a soft cloth is enough.

Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It removes more of the surface.

Work for landlords and builders

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Inverarish use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

What we do, step by step

We begin by going over the job with you. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. It normally takes the best part of a day.

  1. The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
  2. Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
  5. We leave it to cure, and it’s usually ready the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
