Bath re-enamelling in Beattock without replacing anything
Re-enamelling is a one-day job for most baths. Nothing is disconnected or removed. If you’re dealing with an original cast iron bath that needs restoring and wear marks under the taps, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll come back.

DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
What we’re called out for in Beattock
The gloss on enamel is thin, and abrasive cleaning slowly wears it away. Eventually the surface turns porous and stains.
Common reasons people in Beattock contact us are:
- Stains that won’t shift
- Chips and rust in more than one place
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
- A coating lifting around the plughole
What your quote should include
- How changes to the job are handled
- Who turns up on the day
- How long it needs to cure
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
Repairs by material
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.
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
What bath re-enamelling costs
Resurfacing from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The material and finish
- The colour and finish to match
- The size and number of damaged areas
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book.
Send photos for a quote
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:
- The material, if you know it
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.
Common questions in Beattock
How durable is a resurfaced bath?
Look after it and it lasts. Avoid abrasive cleaners and suction mats.
How soon can you come?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Will the bath be moved?
Not at all. We work on the bath in place, with the room protected and ventilated.
How do I get a price for bath re-enamelling in Beattock?
Resurfacing from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
How long is the bath unusable?
Normally one day, with the bath ready the day after. A badly pitted bath can need a second day.
How do I book?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.

Aftercare tips
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Store bottles off the bath
- Repair dripping taps early
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, particularly where water is hard, so limescale cannot build up.
If a previous coating is starting to peel, don’t pick at it. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
The process
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes most of the day. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
- Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
- The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
- We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
- Once cured, normally by the next day, the bath is ready.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
Getting a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.
