Bath re-enamelling in Allandale, done in place
We do not move the bath, so your taps, tiles and plumbing are left alone. It typically takes one visit, with the bath ready to use the following day. We’re frequently asked to fix an old resurfacing that’s failing and an original cast iron bath that needs restoring, on Victorian roll-tops, acrylic baths and basins & shower trays.
Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Falkirk.

Work for landlords and builders
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
When a repair isn’t the answer
It helps to know what we can’t do:
- A bath split right through the body
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
- A bath that is rusted through
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.
What we work on
- Cast iron baths
- Acrylic baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Victorian roll-tops
- Pressed steel baths
Different materials, different repairs
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 is the part we put right.
Pressed steel
Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, once any rust has been treated. Steel frequently rusts by the plughole, so we check it carefully.
How it works
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you are not left guessing. On site, it takes most of the day. We leave the room clean.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
- We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
- The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
- Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures until the next day.
How to prepare
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Let the surface dry out before the visit

How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. We don’t charge extra for travel to Allandale. The price depends on:
- How many areas need work
- How hard the colour is to match
- How easy the damage is to reach
- What the surface is made of
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Quotes from your pictures
You can usually get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:
- The material, if you know it
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- One picture of the whole bath
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.
Repair or replace in Allandale?
There are times replacing is better: if the bath is cracked through, if you want a different size or shape, or if you’re refitting the whole room anyway. In most other cases, resurfacing is the better choice. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

How to look after the repair
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, as they can stain. Repair dripping taps promptly.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading and make the job bigger. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.
What we’re called out for in Allandale
Sometimes it’s an earlier resurfacing that has failed, lifting by the plughole or blistering. Failing coatings are stripped back before we resurface.
Contact us if you’ve noticed:
- A dull, rough surface that will not come clean
