How we handle bath re-enamelling in Sauchen

Re-enamelling gives a worn bath a new glossy surface without a refit. It’s the answer when the entire bath is tired rather than one spot. If you are dealing with several chips and rust patches and a peeling or bubbling previous coating, we can help, on acrylic baths, pressed steel baths and cast iron baths alike.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we’ve gone.

What bath re-enamelling costs

Prices start from £350. There’s no charge for travel to Sauchen. The price depends on:

  • The type of damage
  • How much damage there is
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • What the surface is made of

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your pictures

You can usually get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Something in shot to show the size

We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

Looking after it afterwards

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Store bottles off the bath
  • Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
  • Get any chip repaired quickly
  • Avoid suction-cup mats

Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, as they can stain. Repair dripping taps promptly.

Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It removes more of the surface and makes resurfacing more work.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Sauchen

What does bath re-enamelling cost?

Prices start from £350. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

How soon can you come?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Can you resurface a pink bath in white?

Yes, most people go for white. Mention the colour you want when you send photos.

Do you cover the whole of Aberdeenshire?

We cover the whole UK, including Sauchen and the rest of Aberdeenshire. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll confirm dates.

Is there a guarantee?

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

Will there be a smell?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

What your bath is made of matters

Roll-top and period baths

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

Acrylic

Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, with a coating system suited to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot for the finish to last.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Sauchen

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Repair or replace in Sauchen?

A replacement often means several trades over several days. Re-enamelling is one technician, generally one day, with the bath back in use the following day. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Sauchen. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Why us?

  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • A fixed quote before you book
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • Same prices wherever you are

Our hiring checklist

What happens on the day

The work is clean and fairly quiet. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes most of the day. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
  2. Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
  3. We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
  4. Primer and finish coats are applied.
  5. The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.

Before we arrive

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
