Bath Re-enamelling for Lochmaddy homes
Problem with your bath in Lochmaddy? We repair it in place, match it on site and back it with a one-year guarantee.
- Resurfacing from £350
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll 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.
About our bath re-enamelling in Lochmaddy
After re-enamelling, the bath has a smooth, glossy, new-looking surface, but without the cost and upheaval of a refit. It suits anyone happy with the bathroom apart from the bath. If you are dealing with thin, worn enamel in places and several chips and rust patches, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Lochmaddy and across Na h-Eileanan Siar.

Lochmaddy questions
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole bath and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?
Yes, roll-tops are a big part of our work. The inside is resurfaced, and we can refinish the outside as well.
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.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Repair or replace: which is better?
If the bath is sound, re-enamelling is normally much cheaper than replacing it, once you add removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating to the price of a new bath. It’s also far quicker. Prices start from £350. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Why book with us
- Fixed prices from your pictures
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
- Same prices wherever you are
- One-year guarantee on every repair

How it works
We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. You can expect it to take the best part of a day, and we will tell you if anything changes.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Let us know about parking or access
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
How to get a price
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or call us. We will say immediately whether it can be repaired.

Different materials, different repairs
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Acrylic
We resurface acrylic baths as well, with a coating system suited to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported for the finish to last.
How we price bath re-enamelling
Prices start from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- The type of damage
- What the surface is made of
- How many areas need work
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed quote
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- Natural light rather than flash
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A picture taken from further back
- Where you are, by postcode
We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.
Honest limits
We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
- Holes rusted through the metal
- A metal bath with a through crack
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.
