A re-enamelled bath looks and feels like a new one, but without the cost and upheaval of a refit. It suits anyone happy with the bathroom apart from the bath. Our repair technicians work on cast iron baths, basins & shower trays and acrylic baths, and people most often call us about chips and rust in more than one place and a peeling or bubbling previous coating.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Cast iron
Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.
Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Portskerra
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Do you work in Portskerra?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Portskerra and the rest of Highland. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can you do the outside of a roll-top?
Yes. We can do the inside and outside if you’d like.
Are there extra charges for Portskerra?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.
Can you resurface a pink bath in white?
Yes, most people go for white. Tell us what you’d like when you ask for a quote.
What bath re-enamelling costs
Prices start from £350. We do not charge extra for travel to Portskerra. The price depends on:
- The material and finish
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Access to the area
- How many items we do on one visit
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Send photos for a quote
You can usually get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- The material, if you know it
- Something in shot to show the size
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Do you need bath re-enamelling in Portskerra?
Many baths we resurface have simply been well used, and only the surface is worn. The body of the bath is normally perfectly sound.
Contact us if you’ve noticed any of these:
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
- Brown or grey marks that do not clean off

When a repair isn’t the answer
We will not take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
- Problems we can’t see until an old finish comes off
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Cast iron baths
- Pressed steel baths

How to care for the repair
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs straight away
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
Give the finish its full curing time before using the bath. Then, gentle cleaning with a soft cloth is enough.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so have it stripped and resurfaced.
