About our bath re-enamelling in Little Dunkeld

Cast iron and steel baths are ideal for re-enamelling, and we can resurface acrylic baths as well. You end up with a smooth, glossy surface. We work on pressed steel baths, basins & shower trays and cast iron baths, and the jobs we see most are worn patches where water runs and sits and a roll-top that’s seen better days.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Little Dunkeld

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Little Dunkeld use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

What we do, step by step

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes most of the day, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
  2. The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
  3. We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
  4. Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
  5. Once cured, normally by the following day, the bath is ready.

Before we arrive

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Advice

Little Dunkeld: your questions answered

Can you fix a peeling bath coating?

Yes. Stripping the old coating adds time, so it’s reflected in the quote.

How long does re-enamelling last?

That depends on preparation and how the bath is treated. With good preparation and gentle cleaning it lasts a long time, and it’s guaranteed for a year.

Can you resurface a pink bath in white?

Yes, most people go for white. Tell us what you’d like when you ask for a quote.

Is my repair covered?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.

Is there any odour?

There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.

What areas do you cover?

The entire UK, including all of Perth and Kinross. Just include your postcode and we’ll offer you dates.

What we cannot put right

We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
  • A cast iron or steel bath that is cracked right through
  • Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

  • Victorian roll-tops
  • Basins & shower trays
  • Pressed steel baths
  • Cast iron baths
  • Acrylic baths

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Little Dunkeld?

Older baths often have several problems at once: dull areas, chips, rust and staining. Resurfacing sorts them out together.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
  • Thin, worn enamel in places
  • A peeling or bubbling previous coating
  • A coloured bath you want in white

10 questions to ask before booking

What bath re-enamelling costs

Prices start from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:

  • The material and finish
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How many items we do on one visit

Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

How to get a fixed price

Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Details of any past repairs

Upload pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you are in Little Dunkeld, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Different materials, different repairs

Roll-top and period baths

We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.

Pressed steel

Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Steel frequently rusts by the plughole, so we pay close attention there.

Keeping it looking good

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
  • Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
  • Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
  • A dripping tap should be fixed promptly

A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, especially in hard water areas, so limescale can’t build up.

The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and any rust spreads underneath. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.
