Repair or replace in Sauchieburn?
There are times replacing is better: a cracked-through bath, a change of size or shape, or a full refit. In most other cases, resurfacing is the better choice. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

How we handle bath re-enamelling in Sauchieburn
Many of the baths we re-enamel are period roll-tops, which would be difficult and expensive to replace. Doing them in place keeps an original feature. Our technicians work on Victorian roll-tops, pressed steel baths and basins & shower trays, and common reasons people get in touch are lots of chips and rust spots and a roll-top that’s seen better days.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we will sort it.

How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The material
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed price
You can usually get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Natural light rather than flash
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.
Honest limits
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Steel that has corroded right through
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
- A cast iron or steel bath that’s cracked right through

When to call us in Sauchieburn
Enamel wears gradually. Years of cleaning, hard water and hot baths wear the gloss away, normally first under the taps and around the waste.
The most common problems we are called about are:
- Wear marks under the taps
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
- A dull, rough surface that won’t come clean
- A roll-top that’s seen better days
Questions to ask before you book
- What protection goes down before work starts
- If travel is included in the price
- Aftercare advice
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
Different materials, different repairs
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Pressed steel
Steel baths re-enamel well, once any rust has been treated. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we check it carefully.
Looking after it afterwards
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
- Never use suction bath mats
- Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
The first few days matter most: let it cure fully, then use mild cleaners only. After that, no abrasives and no suction mats.
Do not try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It removes more of the surface and makes resurfacing more work.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
How the visit works
Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a full day, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
- We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
- Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
- We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
- Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures.
Before we arrive
- Clear the area around the damage
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
Ask for a price
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or call us. We will say right away whether it can be repaired.

Questions from Sauchieburn
Do the materials smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
Which areas do you work in?
The entire UK, including all of Aberdeenshire. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll offer you dates.
When can you do it?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Does the bath have to be removed?
No. It’s re-enamelled where it stands, so nothing else is disturbed.
How durable is a resurfaced bath?
Look after it and it lasts. Avoid abrasive cleaners and suction mats.
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire bath and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Will there be fumes?
Yes, while we are applying the finish. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.
Can a failed resurfacing be redone?
Yes, we do this regularly. Stripping the old coating adds time, so it’s reflected in the quote.
