Bath re-enamelling at your home in Lochardil
When a bath is structurally fine but worn out on the surface, re-enamelling is generally the most cost-effective option. It avoids removal, plumbing and re-tiling. Whether it’s staining under the taps and around the waste and enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
Keeping it looking good
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Respect the curing time we give you
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- Store bottles off the bath
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
Stick to mild, non-abrasive cleaners, do not use suction bath mats, and do not leave bottles or razors standing on the surface.
Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It just wears the enamel further and makes resurfacing more work.
Repairs by material
Cast iron
Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.
Acrylic
Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, with a coating system suited to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported for the finish to last.
Lochardil: your questions answered
Can you make a coloured bath white?
Yes. We can resurface a coloured bath in white, and we can do the rest of the suite as well.
How do I get a price for bath re-enamelling in Lochardil?
Prices start from £350. We give a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item with your IV2 postcode.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

The entire UK, including all of Highland. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Lochardil. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is there a smell?
A little, during the work. We set up ventilation and the smell fades as it cures.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

For landlords and businesses

Resurfacing from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How many items we do on one visit
- The material
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.
Send pictures for a quote
When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Any details about the material
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
How it works
Arrival times are agreed in advance. On site, it takes the best part of a day for most jobs. We leave the room clean.
- We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
How to prepare
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Open a window if you can
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
How to get a price
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath, we can give you a fixed quote without visiting.
