Bath re-enamelling in Tarbet, done in place
Re-enamelling is a one-day job for most baths. Taps, tiles, panels and plumbing all stay in place. We regularly repair Victorian roll-tops, cast iron baths and pressed steel baths, and the jobs we see most are a peeling or bubbling previous coating and stains that won’t shift.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Tarbet as everywhere else we work.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

What bath re-enamelling costs
Prices start from £350. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We look at:
- How many areas need work
- How hard the colour is to match
- The material
- Access to the area
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Tarbet. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Getting a price from pictures
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- The material, if you know it
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
Email us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Tarbet, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
Questions from Tarbet
How do I get a price for bath re-enamelling in Tarbet?
Prices start from £350. Every job gets a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item with your G83 postcode.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.
Can you price it without visiting?
Generally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Do you work in Tarbet?
We do. Repair technicians travel to Tarbet from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Which areas do you work in?
We work UK-wide, and that includes Tarbet. Prices do not change with location.
Can a failed resurfacing be redone?
Yes. Stripping the old coating adds time, so it’s reflected in the quote.
How soon can you come?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Honest limits
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
- A bath split right through the body
- Problems we can’t see until an old finish comes off
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

For landlords and businesses
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.
How the visit works
There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to the best part of a day, including clearing up.
- We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
Getting ready for the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
Ask for a price
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job.
Advice
Keeping it looking good
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Store bottles off the bath
- Have chips seen to early
Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. After that, a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs.
If a previous coating is starting to peel, do not pick at it. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so have it stripped and resurfaced.
Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Tarbet
Enamel wears gradually. Abrasive cleaners, limescale and years of use dull the surface, usually first under the taps and around the waste.
The things customers normally mention when they call are:
- A coating lifting around the plughole
- Wear marks under the taps
- Stains that won’t shift
- A dull, rough surface that won’t come clean
