Bath re-enamelling at your home in Wick
Cast iron and steel baths are ideal for re-enamelling, and acrylic baths can be resurfaced too. The result is a smooth, even, glossy finish. Our repair technicians work on pressed steel baths, basins & shower trays and Victorian roll-tops, and common reasons people contact us are lots of chips and rust spots and staining under the taps and around the waste.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once we have gone.

Common questions in Wick
How long does re-enamelling take?
Typically one day, with the bath ready the day after. Deeply pitted baths may need a second day.
What happens if you find more damage?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Are there extra charges for Wick?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
How durable is a resurfaced bath?
That depends on preparation and how the bath is treated. Properly prepared and looked after, it lasts well, and it’s guaranteed for a year.
Which areas do you work in?
All of Highland, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Highland.
What does bath re-enamelling cost?
Prices start from £350. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
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.
How the visit works
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a full day. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
- The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
- We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
- Once cured, normally by the next day, the bath is ready.
Before we arrive
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Let us know about parking or access

Repairing versus replacing in Wick
A new bath means a plumber, removing a heavy bath, re-tiling or making good the walls and days without a bathroom. Re-enamelling renews the whole surface with the bath left where it is. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking.
Why us?
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- A fixed quote before booking
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface

Work for landlords and builders
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Highland and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
If you manage property in Wick, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we will price them together.
What affects the price in Wick
Prices start from £350. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- What kind of damage it is
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How many items we do on one visit
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 pictures
You can take the pictures on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Pressed steel
Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, once any rust has been treated. Steel often rusts by the plughole, so we pay close attention there.
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 the part we put right.

Around Wick

Keeping it looking good
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- Do not leave a chip unrepaired
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, avoid suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.
The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and rust spots spread under the surface. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.
Honest limits
Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. We cannot fix:
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
- A metal bath with a through crack
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.
