Bath re-enamelling at your home in Troqueer
We don’t move the bath, so the taps, tiles and plumbing are not touched. Most baths are done in one visit, with the bath ready to use the following day. Whether it’s chips and rust in more than one place and an old resurfacing that’s failing, we can help, whatever the material.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

What we’re called out for in Troqueer
Older baths often have several problems at once: worn patches, chips, rust spots and stains. Resurfacing sorts them out together.
Send us a photo if you notice any of these:
- Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off
- Wear marks under the taps
- A roll-top that’s seen better days
- Chips and rust in more than one place
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- Who turns up on the day
- How changes to the job are handled
- How soon you can use it again
Repairs by material
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Acrylic
We resurface acrylic baths as well, using a system that bonds to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported.
FAQs for Troqueer
What information do you need?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Does re-enamelling smell?
Yes, while we are applying the finish. We set up ventilation and the smell fades as it cures.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
How long does re-enamelling take?
Usually a day, then it’s ready to use the following day. A badly pitted bath can need a second day.
Can you make a coloured bath white?
Yes, most people go for white. Tell us what you’d like when you ask for a quote.
Can you do the outside of a roll-top?
Yes, roll-tops are a big part of our work. The inside is resurfaced, and we can refinish the outside as well.
Do you work in Troqueer?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Troqueer for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Keeping it looking good
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
Treat the new finish gently at first: give it the full curing time, then clean it gently. After that, no abrasives and no suction mats.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading, and each one adds to the preparation. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.
What we do, step by step
We turn up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take a full day, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- 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.
Before we arrive
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
Getting a price

Related advice
What a repair cannot fix
We won’t take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
- A metal bath with a through crack
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
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.
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, it’s worth having it done properly.
Landlord and trade work in Troqueer
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Dumfries and Galloway and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
For anyone letting property in or around Troqueer, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll price them together.
What bath re-enamelling costs
Prices start from £350. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. This is what makes a difference:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The material
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. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed price
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Where you are, by postcode
- One picture of the entire bath
- The material, if you know it
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
If you’re in Troqueer and want a price, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
