About our bath re-enamelling in Viewhill
A re-enamelled bath looks and feels like a new one, without any of the disruption of replacing it. It’s ideal if you like your bathroom but not the state of the bath. Typical jobs include an outdated colour you’d like to change and stains that won’t shift, in basins & shower trays, cast iron baths and pressed steel baths.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee.

Viewhill is about 4 miles east of Inverness, in Highland. We visit clients in Viewhill, so nothing has to leave your home. Viewhill is one of 253 towns and villages in Highland we cover.

Should you replace it?
A refit takes several trades and several days. Re-enamelling takes one technician and typically one day, with the bath ready the following day. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

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.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
Different materials, different repairs
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
When we would advise against a repair
Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- A bath split right through the body
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.
Materials we work on in Viewhill
- Victorian roll-tops
- Pressed steel baths
- Acrylic baths
- Cast iron baths
- Basins & shower trays
Keeping it looking good
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs immediately
Give the finish its full curing time before using the bath. After that, a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so have it stripped and resurfaced.
Common questions in Viewhill
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?
Yes, we do this regularly. Removing the old finish takes extra time, which we include in the price.
Is there a smell?
Some odour is normal while we spray, which is why we ventilate the bathroom. It fades as the coating cures.
What areas do you cover?
The entire UK, including all of Highland. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.
How long will the bath be out of use?
Generally one day, with the bath ready the next day. Deeply pitted baths may need a second day.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We come back with a fixed quote, usually with dates to choose from. There is no obligation to book.
Can you quote from photos?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
Work for landlords and builders
If you manage property in Viewhill, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we will come back with a combined price.
Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
What happens on the day
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which generally takes a full day. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
Ask for a price
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
