Bath re-enamelling in Lochans without replacing anything
When a bath is structurally fine but worn out on the surface, resurfacing is normally the best value. There is no removal, plumbing or tiling involved. Common call-outs are for a roll-top that’s seen better days and thin, worn enamel in places, on basins & shower trays, acrylic baths and Victorian roll-tops.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after the visit.

What we can’t put right
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- A bath split right through the body
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.

How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- How much damage there is
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How hard the colour is to match
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.
Getting a price from pictures
You can take the photos on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Ensure they show:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Any details about the material
- A photo taken from further back
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or call us. We will say immediately whether it can be repaired.

Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Lochans. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Looking after it afterwards
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
The first few days matter most: let it cure fully, then use mild cleaners only. After that, no abrasives and no suction mats.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading and make the job bigger. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.
Do you need bath re-enamelling in Lochans?
Enamel wears gradually. Years of cleaning, hard water and hot baths dull the surface, starting where water runs and sits.
Most people contact us after spotting something like this:
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
- Wear marks under the taps
- Brown or grey marks that do not clean off
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it

DIY repairs versus a professional job
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.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
What we do, step by step
There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take the best part of a day.
- The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
- We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
- We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
- The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
- The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Open a window if you can
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.
