Bath re-enamelling at your home in Lownie Moor

Cast iron, steel, acrylic, roll-top and period baths can all be resurfaced. Several coats of finish go on over a bonding primer, after the bath has been cleaned, repaired and keyed. We regularly repair acrylic baths, basins & shower trays and pressed steel baths, and common reasons people get in touch are an original cast iron bath that needs restoring and staining under the taps and around the waste.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Lownie Moor and across Angus.

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

A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is what we repair.

Keeping it looking good

So the finish stays in good condition:

  • Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
  • A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
  • Have chips seen to early
  • Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish

Rinse the bath and wipe it over after use, especially in hard water areas, so limescale cannot build up.

Leave a peeling coating alone. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so have it stripped and resurfaced.

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Lownie Moor?

Older baths frequently have several problems at once: dull areas, chips, rust and staining. Resurfacing sorts them out together.

Contact us if you’ve noticed any of these:

  • A bath in a colour that no longer suits
  • Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough
  • An old resurfacing that’s failing
  • Wear marks under the taps

FAQs for Lownie Moor

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

What happens if you find more damage?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.

How do I book?

Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.

Can you quote from pictures?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Do you cover the whole of Angus?

We work UK-wide, and that includes Lownie Moor. Prices don’t change with location.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across Angus.

Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?

Yes, we do this regularly. Removing the old finish takes extra time, which we include in the price.

Repairing versus replacing in Lownie Moor

A refit takes several trades and several days. Resurfacing is one technician, normally in a day, and the bath can be used the day after. Prices start from £350. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

What you get with us

  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job

Work for landlords and builders

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll arrange it.

Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

How we price bath re-enamelling

Prices start from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Lownie Moor. The price reflects:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

We don’t add 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.

Quotes from your photos

Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Any details about the material
  • A photo taken from further back

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and no obligation.

How it works

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you’re not left guessing. On site, it takes a full day. We leave the room clean and you will know when it can be used.

  1. First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
  2. Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
  3. We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
  4. Primer and finish coats are applied.
  5. The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.

How to prepare

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

How to get a price
