Bath re-enamelling in Kilkerran

Repairs by material

Roll-top and period baths

We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.

Cast iron

Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.

Bath re-enamelling in Kilkerran without replacing anything

Re-enamelling gives a worn bath a new glossy surface without a refit. It’s the answer when the entire bath is tired rather than one spot. Common call-outs are for chips and rust in more than one place and an outdated colour you’d like to change, on pressed steel baths, acrylic baths and Victorian roll-tops.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work.

What affects the price in Kilkerran

Resurfacing from £350. We do not charge extra for travel to Kilkerran. The price comes down to:

  • The type of damage
  • The material and finish
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Quotes from your photos

Phone pictures are fine. Ensure they show:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

For landlords and businesses

Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Argyll and Bute and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do

How the visit works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes most of the day. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
  2. We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
  3. Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
  4. We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
  5. Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures.

How to prepare

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

Getting a price

Send us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Kilkerran, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Kilkerran: your questions answered

Can you resurface a pink bath in white?

Yes. Coloured baths can be resurfaced in white, and the basin and toilet can be done too.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Do you come to Kilkerran?

Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Kilkerran from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

How quickly can you book me in?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

How do I book?

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

Can you quote from photos?

Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Kilkerran

A dull surface stains and holds dirt, and scrubbing it wears it down further. At that stage, resurfacing is the fix.

If you can see any of these, send us a photo:

  • Several chips and rust patches
  • An old resurfacing that’s failing
  • Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off
  • Enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough

What your quote should include

  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • Who will actually do the work
  • How to look after the finish
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match

Our hiring checklist

Can I fix it myself?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

Aftercare tips

Aftercare is simple:

  • Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
  • Respect the curing time we give you
  • Do not leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface

Treat the new finish gently at first: give it the full curing time, then clean it gently. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.

Don’t try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It removes more of the surface and makes resurfacing more work.
