Landlords, agents and businesses in Scottish Borders
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Scottish Borders as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
About our bath re-enamelling in Scottish Borders
If your bath is sound but looks tired, re-enamelling is generally the most cost-effective option. There’s no removal, plumbing or tiling involved. Whether it’s wear marks under the taps and a roll-top that’s seen better days, we can generally put it right.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Scottish Borders and across the Scottish Borders.

What your bath is made of matters
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Keeping it looking good
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, especially in hard water areas, so limescale cannot build up.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.
Can I fix it myself?
It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
Common problems we fix in Scottish Borders
Many baths we resurface have simply been well used, with nothing wrong except the surface. Underneath, a cast iron or steel bath is usually as strong as ever.
Customers generally contact us about:
- Thin, worn enamel in places
- Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off
- A roll-top that is seen better days
- A coating lifting around the plughole

Common questions in Scottish Borders
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote with dates.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.
Can you resurface a pink bath in white?
Yes. Coloured baths can be resurfaced in white, and we can do the rest of the suite as well.
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole bath and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Do you charge for travel?
We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.
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 long does re-enamelling take?
Generally one day, with the bath ready the day after. Deeply pitted baths may need a second day.
What affects the price in Scottish Borders
Resurfacing from £350. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How hard the colour is to match
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Access to the area
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.
Quotes from your photos
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Details of any past repairs
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Something in shot to show the size
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.

- We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
- We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
- We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
