How we handle bath re-enamelling in Muir of Ord
We re-enamel plenty of period and roll-top baths, which would be difficult and expensive to replace. Resurfacing them in place keeps the original bath. We regularly repair basins & shower trays, acrylic baths and Victorian roll-tops, and the jobs we see most are a bath in a colour that no longer suits and stains that won’t shift.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Muir of Ord and across Highland.

How it works
Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Plan for most of the day. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
Getting ready for the visit
- Clear the area around the damage
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Have a window or extractor fan available

What your bath is made of matters
Cast iron
Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.
Acrylic
We resurface acrylic baths as well, with a coating system suited to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported.
For landlords and businesses
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

Questions from Muir of Ord
Can you quote from pictures?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
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.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
How long does re-enamelling last?
A well-prepared finish lasts a long time if it’s looked after. Gentle cleaning, no suction mats.
Can tenants book a repair?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.
What happens after I send pictures?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.
Common problems we fix in Muir of Ord
Often the bath has just had decades of use. The body of the bath is normally perfectly sound.
Most people contact us when they notice one of these:
- Stains that will not shift
- A roll-top that is seen better days
- Wear marks under the taps
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
What to look for in a quote
- What prep work is covered
- What aftercare is recommended
- How changes to the job are handled
- How the colour is matched
Keeping it looking good
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, as they can stain. Fix dripping taps quickly.
Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time and make the job bigger. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.
When we’d advise against a repair
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
- Problems we can’t see until an old finish comes off
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Basins & shower trays
- Acrylic baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Cast iron baths

DIY repairs versus a professional job
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
How we price bath re-enamelling
Prices start from £350. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- The material
- The colour and finish to match
- How much damage there is
- The type of damage
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Quotes from your photos
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote without visiting.
