Bath re-enamelling in Mochrum, done in place
Re-enamelling works especially well on cast iron and steel, and acrylic baths can be resurfaced too. You end up with a smooth, glossy surface. We regularly repair basins & shower trays, pressed steel baths and Victorian roll-tops, and people most often call us about a roll-top that’s seen better days and worn patches where water runs and sits.
Every job is backed for twelve months in Mochrum and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Questions from Mochrum
Do you charge for travel?
There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across Dumfries and Galloway.
Can you quote from photos?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
What areas do you cover?
All of Dumfries and Galloway, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
Will the new finish last?
Look after it and it lasts. Gentle cleaning, no suction mats.
How much does bath re-enamelling cost in Mochrum?
Resurfacing from £350. We give a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item and your postcode.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
When we would advise against a repair
We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- Holes rusted through the metal
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
- Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Pressed steel baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Basins & shower trays
- Acrylic baths
- Cast iron baths
DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
What we do, step by step
We turn up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take the best part of a day, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
- Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
- We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
- The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

What else we do in Mochrum
Landlords, agents and businesses in Mochrum
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
What affects the price in Mochrum
Prices start from £350. There’s no area surcharge for Mochrum. The price reflects:
- The colour and finish to match
- The type of damage
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How easy the damage is to reach
A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Natural light rather than flash
- Where you are, by postcode
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
Repairing versus replacing in Mochrum
Replacement only makes sense in a few cases: 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. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

What your bath is made of matters
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
