About our bath re-enamelling in An Tairbeart

After cleaning, repairing and priming, we spray on the new finish. Most of the work, and most of the durability, is in the preparation, and we take our time over it. We are frequently asked to fix enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough and lots of chips and rust spots, across pressed steel baths, cast iron baths and basins & shower trays.

Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in West Dunbartonshire.

How it works

Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a full day, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
  2. Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
  3. Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
  4. The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
  5. Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Open a window if you can
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in An Tairbeart

Are you accredited?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Does re-enamelling smell?

A little, during the work. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.

How long is the bath unusable?

Normally one day, with the bath ready the day after. Deeply pitted baths may need a second day.

What happens next?

You’ll get a fixed quote back, normally with dates to choose from. You are under no obligation.

What does bath re-enamelling cost?

Prices start from £350. We give a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Will the bath be moved?

No. It’s re-enamelled where it stands, so nothing else is disturbed.

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

Aftercare tips

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Have chips seen to early
  • Never use suction bath mats
  • A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
  • Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it

Rinse the bath and wipe it over after use, particularly where water is hard, to stop limescale building up.

Leave a peeling coating alone. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.

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. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.

Pressed steel

Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.

Honest limits

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • A bath split right through the body
  • Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
  • Holes rusted through the metal

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

What we work on

  • Victorian roll-tops
  • Basins & shower trays
  • Pressed steel baths
