Bath re-enamelling in Kintore

Bath re-enamelling in Kintore without replacing anything

Re-enamelling is a one-day job for most baths. Taps, tiles, panels and plumbing all stay in place. We regularly repair acrylic baths, Victorian roll-tops and basins & shower trays, and the jobs we see most are a bath that stays dull however much you clean it and lots of chips and rust spots.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Kintore and across Aberdeenshire.

Keeping it looking good

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
  • Fix dripping taps quickly
  • Store bottles off the bath
  • Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it

Rinse the bath and wipe it over after use, especially in hard water areas, so limescale cannot build up.

Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and any rust spreads underneath. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Kintore?

Enamel’s shine is only skin deep, and every scrub with an abrasive cleaner takes a little away. Eventually the surface turns porous and stains.

You may need us if you’ve spotted:

  • A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
  • Staining under the taps and around the waste
  • A peeling or bubbling previous coating
  • An outdated colour you’d like to change

10 questions to ask before you book

What we do, step by step

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

  1. First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
  2. Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
  3. The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
  4. Primer and finish coats are applied.
  5. We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.

Before we arrive

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Advice

Repair or replace in Kintore?

A refit takes several trades and several days. Re-enamelling takes one technician and typically one day, with the bath ready the next day. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

What you get with us

  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Work done at your home or business
  • No need to remove anything
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year

Read our pricing or bath cost comparison.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

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, a professional repair is worth it.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Acrylic

Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, using a system that bonds to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported.

Roll-top and period baths

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