Bath re-enamelling in Tyndrum

How we handle bath re-enamelling in Tyndrum

Re-enamelling gives a worn bath a new glossy surface without taking anything out. It’s the answer when the entire bath is tired rather than one spot. If you are dealing with brown or grey marks that don’t clean off and a coloured bath you want in white, we can help, on Victorian roll-tops, pressed steel baths and acrylic baths alike.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Tyndrum and across Stirling.

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 kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

Repairs by material

Pressed steel

Steel baths re-enamel well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Steel frequently rusts by the plughole, so we pay close attention there.

Roll-top and period baths

We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.

Landlord and trade work in Tyndrum

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will handle the rest.

What affects the price in Tyndrum

Prices start from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The type of damage

We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Tyndrum. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

How to get a fixed quote

You can usually get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

The entire UK, including all of Stirling. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.

Do you come to Tyndrum?

When can you do it?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it normally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.

What do you need from me?

Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.

Are you accredited?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Will there be a smell?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.

Looking after it afterwards

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Respect the curing time we give you
  • Never use suction bath mats
  • Wash away dyes and oils after use
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent

Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, do not use suction bath mats, and do not leave bottles or razors standing on the surface.

Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time and make the job bigger. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.

How the visit works

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a full day. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
  2. The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
  3. The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
  4. We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
  5. The bath is left to cure and can usually be used the next day.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Related advice

Why repair rather than replace?

A refit takes several trades and several days. Re-enamelling takes one technician and generally one day, with the bath ready the following day. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

What we are called out for in Tyndrum

Enamel’s shine is only skin deep, and every scrub with an abrasive cleaner takes a little away. Eventually the surface turns porous and stains.

If you can see any of these, send us a picture:

  • Worn patches where water runs and sits
  • Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough
  • A peeling or bubbling previous coating
  • Staining under the taps and around the waste

Questions to ask before booking

  • How long it needs to cure
  • What prep work is covered
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • Who will actually do the work
