What affects the price in Warriston
Resurfacing from £350. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We take into account:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The material and finish
Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Getting a price from photos
Phone pictures are fine. Just ensure we can see:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- The material, if you know it
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
If you’re in Warriston and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Bath re-enamelling in Warriston without replacing anything
We re-enamel plenty of period and roll-top baths, which are heavy, hard to move and costly to replace. Doing them in place keeps an original feature. Our technicians work on pressed steel baths, acrylic baths and Victorian roll-tops, and the jobs we see most are a bath that stays dull however much you clean it and chips and rust in more than one place.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

What happens on the day
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. It normally takes the best part of a day, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
- We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
- Once cured, normally by the next day, the bath is ready.

How to look after the repair
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs straight away
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, as they can stain. Repair dripping taps promptly.
Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.
Work for landlords and builders
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details.
Can I fix it myself?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. 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.
Warriston questions
How long does re-enamelling take?
One day for most baths and can be used the day after. We give you timings with the quote.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across Edinburgh.
Will the price change on the day?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
What happens after I send photos?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.
Can you make a coloured bath white?
Yes. We can resurface a coloured bath in white, and we can do the rest of the suite as well.
Does the bath have to be removed?
No, it stays where it is. Everything is done in your bathroom, with the room protected and ventilated.
Can a failed resurfacing be redone?
Yes, we do this regularly. Stripping the old coating adds time, so it’s reflected in the quote.
Repairing versus replacing in Warriston
If the bath is sound, re-enamelling is normally much cheaper than replacing it, when you count removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating. It’s also far quicker. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking.

What we can’t put right
It helps to know what we can’t do too:
- Holes rusted through the metal
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
- A metal bath with a through crack
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.
What we work on
- Victorian roll-tops
- Pressed steel baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Acrylic baths
- Cast iron baths
What your bath is made of matters
Acrylic
We resurface acrylic baths as well, using a system that bonds to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported.
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 the part we put right.
