Bath re-enamelling in Kyle of Lochalsh, done in place
We clean, repair and prime the bath before spraying the new finish. The preparation is what makes it last, so we don’t cut corners on it. Whether it’s a peeling or bubbling previous coating and enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will 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, it’s worth having it done properly.
What your bath is made of matters
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Acrylic
Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, with a coating system suited to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot.

Aftercare tips
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Do not leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs immediately
Give the finish its full curing time before using the bath. Then, gentle cleaning with a soft cloth is enough.
If a previous coating is starting to peel, don’t pick at it. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
Questions from Kyle of Lochalsh
Will there be fumes?
A little, during the work. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.
What information do you need?
Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. The old repair comes out first.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it normally saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you’ll get one combined price.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
How much does bath re-enamelling cost in Kyle of Lochalsh?

What affects the price in Kyle of Lochalsh
Resurfacing from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Kyle of Lochalsh. What changes the price is:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How many items we do on one visit
- The type of damage
- Access to the area
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Any details about the material
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job.
Do you need bath re-enamelling in Kyle of Lochalsh?
Enamel wears gradually. Years of cleaning, hard water and hot baths dull the surface, normally first under the taps and around the waste.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- A coloured bath you want in white
- Worn patches where water runs and sits
- Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough
- Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off
Questions to ask before you book
- What aftercare is recommended
- What prep work is covered
- How your room will be protected
- Whether a trained technician does the job
How it works
We turn up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes the best part of a day, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- 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.
- Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures until the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
Ask for a price
