Bath re-enamelling in Murrayfield, done in place
When a bath is structurally fine but worn out on the surface, resurfacing is normally the best value. There’s no removal, plumbing or tiling involved. We regularly repair acrylic baths, basins & shower trays and pressed steel baths, and common reasons people contact us are a coating lifting around the plughole and lots of chips and rust spots.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Murrayfield as everywhere else we work.

Aftercare tips
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs straight away
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Do not leave a chip unrepaired
Rinse the bath and wipe it over after use, especially in hard water areas, to stop limescale building up.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and any rust spreads underneath. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.

Advice
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.
When to call us in Murrayfield
Sometimes it’s an earlier resurfacing that has failed, peeling around the waste or bubbling. We strip what’s failing and start again.
The most common problems we are called about are:
- Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough
- Stains that won’t shift
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
- Worn patches where water runs and sits
What to look for in a quote

For landlords and businesses
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.
If you manage property in Murrayfield, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we’ll price them together.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
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 usually the cheaper route.
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.
Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Murrayfield
Is there a call-out fee?
We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Can you do the outside of a roll-top?
Yes, roll-tops are a big part of our work. The inside is resurfaced, and we can refinish the outside as well.
What does bath re-enamelling cost?
Prices start from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You will get a fixed figure before you book.
How long is the bath unusable?
Most baths are done in a day, ready the day after. We will confirm timings when we quote.
Can you resurface a pink bath in white?
Yes. We can resurface a coloured bath in white, and we can do the rest of the suite as well.
Do the materials smell?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working.
Can landlords book you?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.
When we would advise against a repair
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Basins & shower trays
- Cast iron baths
- Victorian roll-tops

- How many areas need work
