Bath re-enamelling in Pitcairngreen

Bath re-enamelling at your home in Pitcairngreen

Re-enamelling is a one-day job for most baths, and you can use the bath the next day. Taps, tiles, panels and plumbing all stay in place. Common call-outs are for a coating lifting around the plughole and brown or grey marks that don’t clean off, on Victorian roll-tops, basins & shower trays and pressed steel baths.

Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Perth and Kinross.

Pitcairngreen: your questions answered

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

What happens next?

You will get a fixed quote back, plus dates. You are under no obligation.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Will there be fumes?

Yes, while we’re applying the finish. We set up ventilation and the smell fades as it cures.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Typically, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Is there a call-out fee?

We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.

When to call us in Pitcairngreen

Many baths we resurface have simply been well used, and only the surface is worn. The body of the bath is generally perfectly sound.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Worn patches where water runs and sits
  • A dull, rough surface that won’t come clean
  • Brown or grey marks that do not clean off
  • Chips and rust in more than one place

Choosing a repair company

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Roll-top and period baths

We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.

What affects the price in Pitcairngreen

Prices start from £350. You will know the full cost before booking. We look at:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Unusual colours or finishes

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

How to get a fixed price

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath
  • Any details about the material
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

Send us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your PH1 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Should you replace it?

A new bath means a plumber, removing a heavy bath, making good the walls and tiles and several days without a working bathroom. Re-enamelling gives the bath a new finish without moving it. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Aftercare tips

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
  • Wash away dyes and oils after use
  • Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
  • 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.

If a previous coating is starting to peel, do not pick at it. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.

The process

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes the best part of a day, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
  2. Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
  3. Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
  4. The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
  5. The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Clear the area around the damage

What a repair cannot fix

We won’t take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
  • A bath split right through the body
  • A bath that’s rusted through

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Materials we work on in Pitcairngreen

  • Pressed steel baths
  • Basins & shower trays
  • Acrylic baths
  • Cast iron baths
  • Victorian roll-tops

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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.

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.
