About our bath re-enamelling in Muirhead
The bath stays where it is, so your taps, tiles and plumbing are left alone. Most baths are done in one visit, and can be used again the following day. Common call-outs are for a peeling or bubbling previous coating and wear marks under the taps, across Victorian roll-tops, pressed steel baths and acrylic baths.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

What we do, step by step
Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes most of the day, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
- 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 generally be used the next day.
How to prepare
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
Getting a price
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

How to look after the repair
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
- Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, as they can stain. Fix dripping taps quickly.
The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and any rust spreads underneath. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.
What we can’t put right
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Holes rusted through the metal
- A metal bath with a through crack
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
Materials we work on in Muirhead
- Cast iron baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Acrylic baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Victorian roll-tops
Different materials, different repairs
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Covering Muirhead
Muirhead is about 4 miles north-west of Dundee, in Dundee. We visit clients in Muirhead and the surrounding area, so there’s no workshop to go to. We work in all 50 towns and villages across Dundee, from the larger towns to small villages. Our jobs stretch from Muirhead to Edinburgh (39 miles away).
We cover every part of DD2. Local streets include Coupar Angus Road, Quarry Road and Inver Terrace. Neighbouring places we cover include Birkhill (1 mile east), Liff (1 mile south-west), Camperdown (1 mile south-east), Invergowrie (2 miles south) and St Marys (2 miles east).

Local landmarks in Muirhead

Nearby you will also find Royal Dundee Liff Hospital (1 mile south) and Fowlis Castle (1.6 miles south-west). The countryside around Muirhead includes Trottick Mill Ponds and Balgay Hill.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
Work for landlords and builders
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Muirhead use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
