Repairing versus replacing in Little Scotland
A new bath means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, re-tiling or making good the walls and several days without a working bathroom. Resurfacing gives the bath a new finish with the bath left where it is. Prices start from £350. Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Bath re-enamelling at your home in Little Scotland
Re-enamelling is a one-day job for most baths. Taps, tiles, panels and plumbing all stay in place. Typical jobs include lots of chips and rust spots and stains that won’t shift, on acrylic baths, basins & shower trays and cast iron baths.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll come back.

What your bath is made of matters
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.
How the visit works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for most of the day. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
- Once cured, normally by the next day, the bath is ready.
How to prepare
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Ensure the area is dry
- Let us know about parking or access
Getting a price
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Aftercare tips
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Do not leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
Dry the bath after use if possible, particularly with hard water, and rinse off any bath products.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading, and each one adds to the preparation. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.
Common questions in Little Scotland
How durable is a resurfaced bath?
That depends on preparation and how the bath is treated. With good preparation and gentle cleaning it lasts a long time, and our work is guaranteed for a year.
Which areas do you work in?
The entire UK, including all of Bolton. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.
How long will the bath be out of use?
Normally one day, with the bath ready the following day. Deeply pitted baths may need a second day.
Will the bath be moved?
No. It’s re-enamelled where it stands, so nothing else is disturbed.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
What information do you need?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
Are there extra charges for Little Scotland?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Can you make a coloured bath white?
Yes, white is the usual choice. Tell us what you’d like when you ask for a quote.
For landlords and businesses
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Little Scotland use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, 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 often lifts.
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.
