How we handle bath re-enamelling in Laggan

Re-enamelling works especially well on cast iron and steel, and acrylic baths can be resurfaced too. You end up with a smooth, glossy surface. Whether it’s an old resurfacing that’s failing and worn patches where water runs and sits, we can help, whatever the material.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

FAQs for Laggan

Do the materials smell?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.

Will the bath be moved?

No. We resurface it in place, so the tiles and taps stay put.

Can you change the colour of my bath?

Yes, white is the usual choice. Mention the colour you want when you send pictures.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.

Can landlords book you?

Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

What happens after I send photos?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

Do you cover Laggan?

Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Laggan from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Laggan

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

For anyone letting property in or around Laggan, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we’ll price them together.

What your bath is made of matters

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a bath typically involves a plumber, a fitter and a tiler. Re-enamelling takes one technician and typically one day, and the bath can be used the day after. Prices start from £350. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

What you get with us

  • Colour-matched on site
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • A year’s guarantee on all work

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

What we’re called out for in Laggan

A dull surface stains and holds dirt, and cleaning harder only makes it worse. That’s the point where re-enamelling makes sense.

The most common problems we are called about are:

  • Several chips and rust patches
  • A roll-top that is seen better days
  • An old resurfacing that’s failing
  • A bath that stays dull however much you clean it

Before you book anyone

  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • When it can be used again
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • Who will actually do the work

How to compare quotes

What bath re-enamelling costs

Prices start from £350. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Access to the area
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Whether we combine several jobs

We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Quotes from your pictures

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Details of any past repairs
  • What it’s made of, if you know

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

What we do, step by step

We work cleanly and quietly. We protect the area first, then the work takes a full day. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
  2. We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
  3. We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
  4. We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
  5. Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures.

Before we arrive

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Ask for a price

You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
