About our bath re-enamelling in Kirkton of Durris
After re-enamelling, the bath has a smooth, glossy, new-looking surface, but without the cost and upheaval of a refit. It’s ideal if you like your bathroom but not the state of the bath. Typical jobs include thin, worn enamel in places and chips and rust in more than one place, on pressed steel baths, Victorian roll-tops and basins & shower trays.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
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 normally cheaper.
Kirkton of Durris: your questions answered
What information do you need?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Do you cover Kirkton of Durris?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Kirkton of Durris for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Is there a smell?
Yes, while we’re applying the finish. We set up ventilation and the smell fades as it cures.
Can you quote from photos?
Typically, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Do the materials smell?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working.
The process
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for the best part of a day from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
- We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
- The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
- We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
- Once cured, normally by the day after, the bath is ready.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Keep a parking space free if you can

For landlords and businesses
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Pressed steel
Steel baths re-enamel well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Steel often rusts by the plughole, so we check it carefully.
How we price bath re-enamelling
Prices start from £350. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How hard the colour is to match
- What the surface is made of
- The size and number of damaged areas
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Getting a price from photos
You can usually get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Kirkton of Durris?
Older baths often have several problems at once: worn patches, chips, rust spots and stains. Resurfacing sorts them out together.
The most common problems we’re called about are:
- Enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
- A coloured bath you want in white
- Worn patches where water runs and sits
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- Whether they match the colour on site
- How the room is protected while they work
- Aftercare advice
Keeping it looking good
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Have chips seen to early
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
- Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- Never use suction bath mats
Dry the bath after use if possible, particularly with hard water, and rinse off any bath products.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
