Bath re-enamelling near Murthly

DIY repairs versus a professional job

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

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.

Bath re-enamelling at your home in Murthly

Many of the baths we re-enamel are period roll-tops, which would be difficult and expensive to replace. Doing them in place keeps an original feature. We work on basins & shower trays, cast iron baths and pressed steel baths, and people most frequently call us about chips and rust in more than one place and an outdated colour you’d like to change.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Different materials, different repairs

Acrylic

We resurface acrylic baths as well, with a coating system suited to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot.

Cast iron

A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.

Looking after it afterwards

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
  • Fix dripping taps quickly
  • Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
  • Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth

Dry the bath after use if possible, especially in hard water areas, and rinse away any product left on the surface.

On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.

Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Murthly

A dull surface stains and holds dirt, and scrubbing it wears it down further. At that stage, resurfacing is the fix.

Customers generally contact us about:

  • Wear marks under the taps
  • Staining under the taps and around the waste
  • An old resurfacing that is failing
  • Lots of chips and rust spots

Choosing a repair company

Repairing versus replacing in Murthly

Replacing the bath means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, re-tiling or making good the walls and several days without a working bathroom. Re-enamelling renews the entire surface without moving it. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

What you get with us

  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do

The process

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a full day, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
  2. We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
  3. We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
  4. The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
  5. Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures until the next day.

How to prepare

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Murthly: your questions answered

What happens if you find more damage?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.

Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?

In most cases. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Tell us about it when you ask for a quote.

How much does bath re-enamelling cost in Murthly?

Prices start from £350. We give a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item with your PH1 postcode.

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

What we can’t put right

We won’t take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • A bath that is rusted through
  • Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off
  • A cast iron or steel bath that is cracked right through

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
