Bath re-enamelling in Scots' Gap without replacing anything
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. Common call-outs are for brown or grey marks that don’t clean off and a coloured bath you want in white, on pressed steel baths, Victorian roll-tops and acrylic baths.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Scots' Gap and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Different materials, different repairs
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
The process
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which usually takes the best part of a day. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
How to prepare
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Let us know about parking or access
Ask for a price
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

Scots' Gap: your questions answered
How do I book?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
What happens next?
You will get a fixed quote back. You are under no obligation.
Does re-enamelling smell?
A little, during the work. We set up ventilation and the smell fades as it cures.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?
Yes, roll-tops are a big part of our work. The inside is resurfaced, and we can refinish the outside as well.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
How do I get a price for bath re-enamelling in Scots' Gap?
Resurfacing from £350. We give a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item and your postcode.
Do you need to take the bath out?
No, it stays where it is. We work on the bath in place, with the room protected and ventilated.
What a repair can’t fix
It helps to know what we cannot do:
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
- A bath split right through the body
- Problems we can’t see until an old finish comes off
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Cast iron baths
- Acrylic baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Victorian roll-tops
Landlords, agents and businesses in Scots' Gap
If you manage property in Scots' Gap, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we’ll price them together.
Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
Repairing versus replacing in Scots' Gap
If the bath is sound, re-enamelling is typically much cheaper than replacing it, when you count removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating. It’s much quicker too. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Common problems we fix in Scots' Gap
Frequently the bath has just had decades of use, and only the surface is worn. Underneath, a cast iron or steel bath is typically as strong as ever.
You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
- Wear marks under the taps
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
- A coloured bath you want in white
What your quote should include
- What preparation is included
- When it can be used again
- How the room is protected while they work
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
What affects the price in Scots' Gap
Resurfacing from £350. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- The type of damage
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Doing more than one item at once
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.
How to get a fixed price
You can take the pictures on your phone. Make sure they show:
- Natural light rather than flash
- A picture taken from further back
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- The material, if you know it
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
