Work for landlords and builders
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Kinneil as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
Bath re-enamelling in Kinneil, done in place
We do not move the bath, so the taps, tiles and plumbing aren’t touched. Most baths are done in one visit, with the bath ready to use the following day. Whether it’s a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean and several chips and rust patches, we can help, whatever the material.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Common problems we fix in Kinneil
Older baths frequently have several problems at once: dull areas, chips, rust and staining. Resurfacing sorts them out together.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Chips and rust in more than one place
- Thin, worn enamel in places
- A roll-top that is seen better days
- Enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough

Kinneil questions
How long is the bath unusable?
One day for most baths and can be used the day after. We give you timings with the quote.
What information do you need?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we will quote them together.
How long does re-enamelling last?
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.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Do you come to Kinneil?
We do. Repair technicians travel to Kinneil from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Are there extra charges for Kinneil?
There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Can you change the colour of my bath?
Yes, white is the usual choice. Tell us what you’d like when you ask for a quote.
Keeping it looking good
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- Store bottles off the bath
- Get any chip repaired quickly
Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. Then, gentle cleaning with a soft cloth is enough.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
What we cannot put right
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Materials we repair
- Victorian roll-tops
- Basins & shower trays
- Acrylic baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Cast iron baths
Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
How it works
There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. The job generally runs to a full day, including clearing up.
- The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
- The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
- The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
- We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
- We leave it to cure, and it’s normally ready the next day.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Ensure the area is dry
