How we handle bath re-enamelling in Stoneykirk
Cast iron, steel, acrylic, roll-top and period baths can all be resurfaced. Several coats of finish go on over a bonding primer, after the bath has been cleaned, repaired and keyed. We work on acrylic baths, pressed steel baths and cast iron baths, and people most often call us about worn patches where water runs and sits and staining under the taps and around the waste.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Keeping it looking good
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Store bottles off the bath
- Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, particularly where water is hard, so limescale can’t build up.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading and make the job bigger. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.
What affects the price in Stoneykirk
Prices start from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- The colour and finish to match
- What kind of damage it is
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How much damage there is
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- The material, if you know it
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Something in shot to show the size
For a price in Stoneykirk, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
Repairing versus replacing in Stoneykirk
Replacing a cast iron bath is a big job: it’s very heavy, may need breaking up, and the replacement can be costly. Re-enamelling avoids all of it. Prices start from £350. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
What you get with us
- Everything repaired in place
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- Rooms protected and left tidy
See our prices page and guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. 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.
When we’d advise against a repair
We won’t take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
- Steel that has corroded right through
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
Materials we repair
- Cast iron baths
- Acrylic baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Pressed steel baths
- Victorian roll-tops

- We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.

- Several chips and rust patches
- A coating lifting around the plughole
- Thin, worn enamel in places
- An outdated colour you’d like to change

Questions from Stoneykirk
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send pictures.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in Stoneykirk.
Do you resurface freestanding baths?
Yes. We can do the inside and outside if you’d like.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Do you need to take the bath out?
Not at all. We work on the bath in place, with the room protected and ventilated.
What your bath is made of matters
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.
