What your bath is made of matters
Pressed steel
Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we pay close attention there.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Bath re-enamelling in Stronmilchan without replacing anything
We clean, repair and prime the bath before spraying the new finish. Most of the work, and most of the durability, is in the preparation, and we take our time over it. Typical jobs include a coating lifting around the plughole and thin, worn enamel in places, across acrylic baths, basins & shower trays and cast iron baths.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will sort it.

FAQs for Stronmilchan
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
How long does re-enamelling take?
Normally one day, with the bath ready the day after. A badly pitted bath can need a second day.
Do you resurface freestanding baths?
Yes, often. The inside is resurfaced, and we can refinish the outside as well.
Will the bath be moved?
No. It’s re-enamelled where it stands, so the tiles and taps stay put.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Is there a smell?
Yes, while we’re applying the finish. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.
For landlords and businesses
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Common problems we fix in Stronmilchan
Often the bath has just had decades of use, with nothing wrong except the surface. The body of the bath is generally perfectly sound.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
- A roll-top that is seen better days
- A coating lifting around the plughole
Questions to ask before you book
- How changes to the job are handled
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- Who turns up on the day
- How soon you can use it again
DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. 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.
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.

The process
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to most of the day, tidy-up included.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
- We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
- Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
- The bath is left to cure and can generally be used the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
How to get a price
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.

When a repair isn’t the answer
We will not take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Why repair rather than replace?
A refit takes several trades and several days. Re-enamelling takes one technician and normally one day, with the bath ready the next day. Prices start from £350. Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Keeping it looking good
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Have chips seen to early
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
Dry the bath after use if possible, and rinse off any bath products.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading and make the job bigger. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.
