Bath re-enamelling in West Leith without replacing anything
We clean, repair and prime the bath before spraying the new finish. Most of the work, and most of the durability, is in the preparation, and we take our time over it. Typical jobs include an old resurfacing that’s failing and a bath in a colour that no longer suits, in basins & shower trays, Victorian roll-tops and pressed steel baths.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll come back.

How we price bath re-enamelling
Prices start from £350. There is no charge for travel to West Leith. The price depends on:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- What the surface is made of
- Unusual colours or finishes
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed quote
Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Details of any past repairs
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
To get a price, send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
FAQs for West Leith
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
What happens after I send pictures?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Does the bath have to be removed?
Not at all. We work on the bath in place, with the room protected and ventilated.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.
Do the materials smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
How durable is a resurfaced bath?
A well-prepared finish lasts a long time if it’s looked after. Avoid abrasive cleaners and suction mats.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Work for landlords and builders
For anyone letting property in or around West Leith, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we will come back with a combined price.
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

Signs you need bath re-enamelling in West Leith
In hard water areas, limescale and the cleaning it needs wear enamel faster, and abrasive cleaners do the most damage.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Lots of chips and rust spots
- An old resurfacing that is failing
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
What your quote should include
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- What prep work is covered
- How long it needs to cure
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
The process
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take most of the day, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
Before we arrive
- Let us know about parking or access
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
Ask for a price
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath, we can price the job the same day in most cases.
Related advice
Keeping it looking good
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- Respect the curing time we give you
- Fix dripping taps quickly
Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, do not use suction bath mats, and don’t leave bottles or razors standing on the surface.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and rust spots spread under the surface. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.

Should you replace it?
Replacing a cast iron bath is a big job: it’s very heavy, may need breaking up, and the replacement can be costly. Resurfacing in place avoids that entirely. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.
