About our bath re-enamelling in Wellwood

A re-enamelled bath looks and feels like a new one, without any of the disruption of replacing it. It suits anyone happy with the bathroom apart from the bath. Whether it’s a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean and a coating lifting around the plughole, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.

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

What bath re-enamelling costs

Resurfacing from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The type of damage
  • What the surface is made of
  • The colour and finish to match

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Quotes from your pictures

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • One picture of the whole bath

If you are in Wellwood and want a price, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

DIY kit or professional repair?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

When to call us in Wellwood

Previous coatings can fail too, lifting by the plughole or blistering. We strip what’s failing and start again.

Look out for any of the following:

  • A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
  • Brown or grey marks that do not clean off
  • Chips and rust in more than one place
  • A peeling or bubbling previous coating

What to look for in a quote

  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • How the colour is matched
  • Whether a trained technician does the job

How to compare quotes

Should you replace it?

Replacing the bath means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, making good the walls and tiles and days without a bathroom. Resurfacing gives the bath a new finish with the bath left where it is. Prices start from £350. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.

  • Honest advice, even when it means no job

Repairs by material

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Roll-top and period baths

Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.

How it works

We turn up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes the best part of a day, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
  3. We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
  4. We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
  5. We leave it to cure, and it’s usually ready the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Ask for a price

FAQs for Wellwood

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.

Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?

In most cases. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Mention it when you send pictures.

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Can you change the colour of my bath?

Yes, white is the usual choice. Mention the colour you want when you send photos.

What does bath re-enamelling cost?

Prices start from £350. Every job gets a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item with your KY12 postcode.

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

What information do you need?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole bath and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

How to look after the repair

To keep it looking its best:

  • A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
  • Do not leave a chip unrepaired
  • Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
  • Do not use the bath until it has fully cured

Rinse the bath and wipe it over after use, particularly where water is hard, so limescale can’t build up.

Do not try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It removes more of the surface.
