The process
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you’re not left guessing. Once we’re there, the work takes most of the day. We leave the room clean.
- We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Advice
Bath re-enamelling at your home in Upper Kilchattan
After cleaning, repairing and priming, we spray on the new finish. Most of the work, and most of the durability, is in the preparation, so we don’t cut corners on it. Whether it’s stains that won’t shift and a coloured bath you want in white, we can usually put it right, on Victorian roll-tops, cast iron baths and acrylic baths alike.
Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Argyll and Bute.

What else we do in Upper Kilchattan
What affects the price in Upper Kilchattan
Resurfacing from £350. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We take into account:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The material
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Send pictures for a quote
When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and no obligation.
Should you replace it?
A refit takes several trades and several days. Re-enamelling takes one technician and usually one day, with the bath ready the day after. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.
Why book with us
- Most jobs done in one visit
- We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- Free fixed quotes from pictures
- Same prices wherever you are
Read our prices page or resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.
Keeping it looking good
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- Repair dripping taps early
- Never use suction bath mats
A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, particularly where water is hard, so limescale cannot build up.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
Upper Kilchattan questions
How much does bath re-enamelling cost in Upper Kilchattan?
Prices start from £350. Every job gets a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
What do you need from me?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
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.
How long does re-enamelling last?
A well-prepared finish lasts a long time if it’s looked after. Avoid abrasive cleaners and suction mats.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We come back with a fixed quote, plus dates. There’s no obligation to book.
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Do you charge for travel?
There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.
For landlords and businesses
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
What we are called out for in Upper Kilchattan
Older baths often have several problems at once: worn patches, chips, rust spots and stains. Re-enamelling deals with all of them in one go.
People usually call us when they notice one of these:
- Wear marks under the taps
- Chips and rust in more than one place
- A coloured bath you want in white
- Stains that won’t shift

- Aftercare advice
- What prep work is covered
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
When we would advise against a repair
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- Steel that has corroded right through
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Cast iron baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Acrylic baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Basins & shower trays
Repairs by material
Pressed steel
Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Steel often rusts by the plughole, so we check it carefully.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.
