How we handle bath re-enamelling in An Luirg
Re-enamelling gives a worn bath a new glossy surface without a refit. It suits baths that are dull, stained, rough or chipped all over. We work on pressed steel baths, acrylic baths and basins & shower trays, and common reasons people get in touch are a coloured bath you want in white and staining under the taps and around the waste.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee.

Do you need bath re-enamelling in An Luirg?
Enamel wears gradually. Abrasive cleaners, limescale and years of use wear the gloss away, starting where water runs and sits.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- A coloured bath you want in white
- Lots of chips and rust spots
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
- Stains that will not shift

Repair or replace in An Luirg?
There are times replacing is better: a cracked-through bath, a change of size or shape, or a full refit. Otherwise, resurfacing typically wins. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

When a repair isn’t the answer
Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Materials we work on in An Luirg

Keeping it looking good
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- Never use suction bath mats
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
Dry the bath after use if possible, particularly with hard water, and rinse away any product left on the surface.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading and make the job bigger. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.
How it works
From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes the best part of a day, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
- The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
- Once cured, normally by the following day, the bath is ready.
How to prepare
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Let us know which floor the room is on

Advice
An Luirg: your questions answered
Will the new finish last?
A well-prepared finish lasts a long time if it’s looked after. Gentle cleaning, no suction mats.
Do the materials smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.
How much does bath re-enamelling cost in An Luirg?
Resurfacing from £350. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Is there a smell?
Yes, while we are applying the finish. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.
Can you change the colour of my bath?
Yes. Coloured baths can be resurfaced in white, and we can do the rest of the suite as well.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?
Yes, we do this regularly. Removing the old finish takes extra time, which we include in the price.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

What your bath is made of matters
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.
