- Access to the area
- The material and finish

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit

Bath re-enamelling in Locharbriggs without replacing anything
Re-enamelling is a one-day job for most baths, with the bath ready to use the following day. Taps, tiles, panels and plumbing all stay in place. Our repair technicians work on pressed steel baths, cast iron baths and Victorian roll-tops, and the jobs we see most are a coating lifting around the plughole and stains that won’t shift.
You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Questions from Locharbriggs
Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?
In most cases. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Mention it when you send photos.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
What do you need from me?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Does the bath have to be removed?
No. We resurface it in place, so nothing else is disturbed.
Will there be fumes?
A little, during the work. We set up ventilation and the smell fades as it cures.
Keeping it looking good
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
- Store bottles off the bath
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
Treat the new finish gently at first: give it the full curing time, then clean it gently. After that, no abrasives and no suction mats.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and rust spots spread under the surface. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.
Honest limits
We won’t take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
- A cast iron or steel bath that’s cracked right through
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Advice
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacement only makes sense in a few cases: a cracked-through bath, a change of size or shape, or a full refit. Otherwise, resurfacing normally wins. Prices start from £350. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.
