About our bath re-enamelling in Newbattle
After re-enamelling, the bath has a smooth, glossy, new-looking surface, but without the cost and upheaval of a refit. It suits anyone happy with the bathroom apart from the bath. We’re frequently asked to fix wear marks under the taps and brown or grey marks that don’t clean off, in Victorian roll-tops, basins & shower trays and pressed steel baths.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Newbattle and across Midlothian.

How we price bath re-enamelling
Prices start from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:
- The type of damage
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The material and finish
- Doing more than one item at once
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Newbattle. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Quotes from your photos
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.

What we are called out for in Newbattle
In hard water areas, limescale and the cleaning it needs wear enamel faster, and abrasive cleaners do the most damage.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
- Worn patches where water runs and sits
- A roll-top that’s seen better days
What to look for in a quote
- Whether they match the colour on site
- What protection goes down before work starts
- What happens if they find more damage
- If travel is included in the price
Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
We resurface acrylic baths as well, with a coating system suited to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple:
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
Give the finish its full curing time before using the bath. Then, gentle cleaning with a soft cloth is enough.
The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and any rust spreads underneath. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.
Honest limits
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
- A bath that’s rusted through
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

FAQs for Newbattle
How long will the bath be out of use?
One day for most baths and can be used the day after. We give you timings with the quote.
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it normally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Do you cover Newbattle?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Newbattle and the rest of Midlothian. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Will the price change on the day?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
