About our bath re-enamelling in Strathpeffer
Resurfacing renews the whole surface of the bath without taking anything out. It suits baths that are dull, stained, rough or chipped all over. We are frequently asked to fix enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough and staining under the taps and around the waste, on acrylic baths, cast iron baths and Victorian roll-tops.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
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.
Do you need bath re-enamelling in Strathpeffer?
Enamel wears gradually. Abrasive cleaners, limescale and years of use wear the gloss away, generally first under the taps and around the waste.
Common reasons people in Strathpeffer contact us include:
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
- Thin, worn enamel in places
- Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
Questions to ask before you book
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- What happens if they find more damage
- Whether they match the colour on site
- What prep work is covered

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Strathpeffer
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Is there a call-out fee?
There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Can you change the colour of my bath?
Yes. We can resurface a coloured bath in white, and we can do the rest of the suite as well.
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
What does bath re-enamelling cost?
Prices start from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Which areas do you work in?
We work UK-wide. Our prices are the same everywhere.
How long is the bath unusable?
Usually a day, then it’s ready to use the following day. A badly pitted bath can need a second day.

Looking after it afterwards
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
- Repair dripping taps early
- Store bottles off the bath
- Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, particularly where water is hard, to stop limescale building up.
If a previous coating is starting to peel, don’t pick at it. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so have it stripped and resurfaced.
How the visit works
From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes most of the day, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- 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
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Let us know if it has been repaired before

How we price bath re-enamelling
Prices start from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- How many items we do on one visit
- The size and number of damaged areas
- What the surface is made of
- The type of damage
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Send pictures for a quote
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- The material, if you know it
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Natural light rather than flash
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
To get a price, send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
Should you replace it?
A replacement often means several trades over several days. Resurfacing takes one technician and usually a day. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is what we repair.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
