Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Will the bath be moved?
No. It’s re-enamelled where it stands, so the tiles and taps stay put.

Bath re-enamelling in Kirkton of Tough, done in place
Re-enamelling gives a worn bath a new glossy surface without taking anything out. It’s the answer when the whole bath is tired rather than one spot. Typical jobs include wear marks under the taps and a coloured bath you want in white, in Victorian roll-tops, cast iron baths and pressed steel baths.
In a village like Kirkton of Tough, some baths have been in for many years. A sound older bath is well worth repairing without disturbing the rest of the room.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Different materials, different repairs
Cast iron
Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.
Acrylic
We resurface acrylic baths as well, using a system that bonds to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot.
What bath re-enamelling costs

- How many items we do on one visit

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
What happens on the day
We agree an arrival time beforehand. Once we are there, the work takes most of the day in most cases. We leave the room clean and you will know when it can be used. Somewhere as small as Kirkton of Tough, access is generally the main thing to plan. Once on site, the job is the same as anywhere.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
Before we arrive
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a bath usually involves a plumber, a fitter and a tiler. Resurfacing is one technician, normally in a day, and the bath can be used the day after. Older homes around Kirkton of Tough may have sizes and fittings that new pieces don’t match. Repairing avoids those problems.
Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
What you get with us
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- No extra charge for your area

How to look after the repair
To keep it looking its best:
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
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. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so have it stripped and resurfaced.
When a repair is not the answer
A repair isn’t right for every job, including:
- Holes rusted through the metal
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Kirkton of Tough?

- Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
- Stains that will not shift
- Wear marks under the taps
For older houses around Kirkton of Tough, near landmarks such as Tough Parish Church, an original cast iron or steel bath is worth keeping, and bath re-enamelling gives it years more use.
