Bath re-enamelling near Port na Craig

About our bath re-enamelling in Port na Craig

We do not move the bath, so the taps, tiles and plumbing aren’t touched. It normally takes one visit, with the bath ready to use the following day. We regularly repair pressed steel baths, basins & shower trays and Victorian roll-tops, and people most frequently call us about stains that won’t shift and wear marks under the taps.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Port na Craig questions

How durable is a resurfaced bath?

Care for it and it lasts. Gentle cleaning, no suction mats.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

How do I book?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole bath and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

What areas do you cover?

All of Perth and Kinross, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

Does the bath have to be removed?

Not at all. We work on the bath in place, with the room masked and ventilated.

Will there be fumes?

There is some smell while the coating is applied, which is why we ventilate the bathroom. It fades as the coating cures.

How the visit works

There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. The job generally runs to most of the day, including clearing up.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
  3. We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
  4. We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
  5. We leave it to cure, and it’s generally ready the next day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

What affects the price in Port na Craig

Resurfacing from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Port na Craig. What changes the price is:

  • The material and finish
  • How many areas need work
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

Getting a price from pictures

You can take the pictures on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:

  • One picture of the entire bath
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

For a price in Port na Craig, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Different materials, different repairs

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 is the part we put right.

Roll-top and period baths

Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Repair or replace in Port na Craig?

Replacing a bath can take several days across several trades. Resurfacing takes one technician and generally a day. Prices start from £350. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

How to care for the repair

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
  • Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
  • Repair dripping taps early

A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, particularly where water is hard, to stop limescale building up.

Leave a peeling coating alone. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
