Materials and what they mean for the repair
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s the part we put right.
Bath re-enamelling in Isle of Whithorn, done in place
We do not move the bath, so the taps, tiles and plumbing aren’t touched. It generally takes one visit, and can be used again the following day. If you are dealing with a coloured bath you want in white and chips and rust in more than one place, we can normally put it right.
Every job is backed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Common questions in Isle of Whithorn
Do you come to Isle of Whithorn?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Isle of Whithorn. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Does the bath have to be removed?
No. It’s re-enamelled where it stands, so nothing else is disturbed.
Is there a guarantee?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Can you do the outside of a roll-top?
Yes. Inside and out if you’d like.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?
In most cases. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Tell us about it when you ask for a quote.

- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Access to the area

- How much damage there is
We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:

- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
Upload a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, with your DG8 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
When to call us in Isle of Whithorn
Once enamel loses its gloss, it stains more easily, and scrubbing it wears it down further. At that stage, resurfacing is the fix.
Most people get in touch when they notice something like this:
- Lots of chips and rust spots
- A dull, rough surface that will not come clean
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
- Staining under the taps and around the waste

Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for a full day. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and how to look after it.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
- Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
- We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
- The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure until the next day.

Should you replace it?
Replacing the bath means a plumber, removing a heavy bath, re-tiling or making good the walls and days without a bathroom. Re-enamelling gives the bath a new finish with the bath left where it is. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
What you get with us
- One price list for the whole UK
- Most jobs done in one visit

When a repair isn’t the answer
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
- A bath that is rusted through
- A cast iron or steel bath that’s cracked right through
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
Landlord and trade work in Isle of Whithorn
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Dumfries and Galloway and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
