DIY kit or professional repair?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

What we’re called out for in Milton of Balgonie
The gloss on enamel is thin, and abrasive cleaning slowly wears it away. Eventually the surface turns porous and stains.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- An old resurfacing that is failing
- A coloured bath you want in white
- Brown or grey marks that do not clean off
- Chips and rust in more than one place

Aftercare tips
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- Repair dripping taps early
- Do not leave a chip unrepaired
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs immediately
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.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
Repair or replace: which is better?
There are times replacing is better: a cracked-through bath, a change of size or shape, or a full refit. In most other cases, resurfacing is the better choice. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Why us?
- Most jobs done in one visit
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
- We leave the room as we found it
- One-year guarantee on every repair

Milton of Balgonie: your questions answered
Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?
Normally, yes. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
How durable is a resurfaced bath?
It depends on preparation, use and care. With good preparation and gentle cleaning it lasts a long time, and our work is guaranteed for a year.
Which areas do you work in?
All of Fife, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
Will the price change on the day?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
How long does re-enamelling take?
Usually a day, then it’s ready to use the following day. A badly pitted bath can need a second day.
Do you come to Milton of Balgonie?
Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Milton of Balgonie from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Honest limits
Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:
- Holes rusted through the metal
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
- A bath split right through the body
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Cast iron baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Acrylic baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Victorian roll-tops
How the visit works
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we’re there. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a full day. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
- The bath is left to cure and can usually be used the day after.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know about parking or access
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Have a window or extractor fan available
