DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
Bath re-enamelling in Locheport without replacing anything
Re-enamelling gives a worn bath a new glossy surface without a refit. It suits baths that are dull, stained, rough or chipped all over. We regularly repair pressed steel baths, Victorian roll-tops and basins & shower trays, and common reasons people get in touch are a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean and lots of chips and rust spots.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we’ve gone.

Common questions in Locheport
Can you do the outside of a roll-top?
Yes. We can do the inside and outside if you’d like.
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.
Will the bath be moved?
No. It’s re-enamelled where it stands, so the tiles and taps stay put.
Do you work in Locheport?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Locheport. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
What do you need from me?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
What we can’t put right
We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Holes rusted through the metal
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
- A metal bath with a through crack
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.
What we work on
- Victorian roll-tops
- Acrylic baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Cast iron baths
The process
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which generally takes most of the day. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.
- We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
- We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
- We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
- Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
- Once cured, normally by the following day, the bath is ready.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
Ask for a price

Related advice
How we price bath re-enamelling
Prices start from £350. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. This is what makes a difference:
- The colour and finish to match
- How much damage there is
- What the surface is made of
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.
Getting a price from pictures
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- The material, if you know it
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
When to call us in Locheport
Enamel’s shine is only skin deep, and every scrub with an abrasive cleaner takes a little away. After years of use, the surface becomes porous and stains easily.
Customers generally contact us about:
- Chips and rust in more than one place
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
- Stains that will not shift
Questions to ask before you book
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
- Whether they match the colour on site
- How long it needs to cure
- Whether a trained technician does the job

Should you replace it?
Replacing a bath usually involves a plumber, a fitter and a tiler. Re-enamelling takes one technician and typically one day, and the bath can be used the day after. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. 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 combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
