About our bath re-enamelling in Kirriemuir
If your bath is sound but looks tired, re-enamelling is typically the most cost-effective option. It avoids removal, plumbing and re-tiling. Our repair technicians work on basins & shower trays, acrylic baths and pressed steel baths, and the jobs we see most are several chips and rust patches and wear marks under the taps.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

What your bath is made of matters
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- Access to the area
- How many areas need work
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Whether we combine several jobs
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.
Quotes from your photos
Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Where you are, by postcode
- Any details about the material
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
What we do, step by step
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we are there. We protect the area first, then the work takes a full day. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
- Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
- Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
- The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
- The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure until the next day.
Before we arrive
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Clear the area around the damage
- Let us know which floor the room is on

Kirriemuir questions
Are you a vetted contractor?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?
Yes, roll-tops are a big part of our work. We resurface the inside, and the outside can be refinished too.
How long does re-enamelling take?
Generally a day, then it’s ready to use the following day. A badly pitted bath can need a second day.
Do you cover Kirriemuir?
We do. We send a technician to Kirriemuir for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Are there extra charges for Kirriemuir?
There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Can you price it without visiting?
Typically, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.
What happens after I send photos?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.

- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it

Landlord and trade work in Kirriemuir
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll handle the rest.
Keeping it looking good
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, particularly where water is hard, to stop limescale building up.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so have it stripped and resurfaced.
Can I fix it myself?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
When a repair isn’t the answer
We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- A bath split right through the body
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.
