Bath Re-enamelling for Balmore homes
Bath re-enamelling in and around Balmore: a fixed quote from photos, a tidy visit and a one-year guarantee.
- Resurfacing from £350
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
Looking after it afterwards
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Do not leave a chip unrepaired
Wipe the bath dry after use where you can, particularly with hard water, and rinse off any bath products.
If a previous coating is starting to peel, do not pick at it. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so have it stripped and resurfaced.
Bath re-enamelling at your home in Balmore
The bath stays where it is, so the taps, tiles and plumbing are not touched. Most baths are done in one visit, and can be used again the day after. Whether it’s staining under the taps and around the waste and a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean, we can help, on acrylic baths, Victorian roll-tops and basins & shower trays alike.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
When a repair isn’t the answer
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- Steel that has corroded right through
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Pressed steel baths
- Acrylic baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Cast iron baths
- Victorian roll-tops
Balmore questions
How long does re-enamelling take?
Typically one day, with the bath ready the day after. Deeply pitted baths may need a second day.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
How soon can you come?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Can a failed resurfacing be redone?
Normally, yes. We strip the failing coating and resurface it properly. Tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.
Do you cover the whole of East Dunbartonshire?
Everywhere in the UK, Balmore included. Travel is included in the price.
Do you charge for travel?
There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Pressed steel
Steel baths re-enamel well, once any rust has been treated. Steel often rusts by the plughole, so we pay close attention there.

The process
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a full day. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
- Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
- We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
- Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Let the surface dry out before the visit

Common problems we fix in Balmore
A dull surface stains and holds dirt, and scrubbing it wears it down further. That is the point where re-enamelling makes sense.
People normally call us after spotting something like this:
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
- Lots of chips and rust spots
- A coloured bath you want in white
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating

What affects the price in Balmore
Resurfacing from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Balmore. The price reflects:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How hard the colour is to match
- The material and finish
- What kind of damage it is
A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from pictures
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- Any details about the material
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.
Landlord and trade work in Balmore
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
