Bath Re-enamelling for Strichen homes
Our technicians come to Strichen for full bath re-enamelling and resurfacing. Everything is done in place, with a one-year guarantee.
- Resurfacing from £350
- Several chips and rust patches
- Stains that will not shift
How we handle bath re-enamelling in Strichen
We do not move the bath, so your taps, tiles and plumbing are left alone. Most baths are done in one visit, and can be used again the next day. Our technicians work on cast iron baths, acrylic baths and pressed steel baths, and common reasons people contact us are an old resurfacing that’s failing and several chips and rust patches.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll sort it.

What we’re called out for in Strichen

The things clients usually mention when they call are:
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
- Chips and rust in more than one place
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
- Thin, worn enamel in places

Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, with a coating system suited to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot.
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.
Strichen questions
Do you work in Strichen?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Strichen. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
What happens next?
We come back with a fixed quote. There’s no obligation to book.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.
How do I book?
Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.
Do you need to take the bath out?
No. It’s re-enamelled where it stands, so the tiles and taps stay put.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
How durable is a resurfaced bath?
Look after it and it lasts. Avoid abrasive cleaners and suction mats.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Strichen
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
When we’d advise against a repair
It helps to know what we can’t do:
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- A bath that’s rusted through
- A cast iron or steel bath that’s cracked right through
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
What we work on
- Basins & shower trays
- Victorian roll-tops
- Pressed steel baths
- Acrylic baths
- Cast iron baths
How it works
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job usually takes the best part of a day. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.
- The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
- The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
- The bath is left to cure and can generally be used the following day.
How to prepare
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Open a window if you can

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.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
Aftercare tips
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Do not 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.
Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time and make the job bigger. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.
