Trusted bath re-enamelling in Bellahouston

How it works

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which generally takes the best part of a day. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  1. We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
  2. Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
  3. We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
  4. Primer and finish coats are applied.
  5. We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Bath re-enamelling in Bellahouston without replacing anything

We do not move the bath, so your taps, tiles and plumbing are left alone. It generally takes one visit, with the bath ready to use the following day. Typical jobs include thin, worn enamel in places and a coating lifting around the plughole, on Victorian roll-tops, cast iron baths and pressed steel baths.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

How to look after the repair

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Get any chip repaired quickly
  • Respect the curing time we give you
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • A dripping tap should be fixed promptly

Wipe the bath dry after use where you can, and rinse off any bath products.

The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and rust spots spread under the surface. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Roll-top and period baths

We can resurface a roll-top 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.

What affects the price in Bellahouston

Prices start from £350. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:

  • How many areas need work
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The colour and finish to match

We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Bellahouston. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Getting a price from pictures

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price without visiting.

Repairing versus replacing in Bellahouston

Getting a cast iron bath out is hard work: they’re heavy, frequently need breaking up, and a new one isn’t cheap. Re-enamelling avoids all of it. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

When a repair isn’t the answer

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
  • A bath that’s rusted through
  • Acrylic that moves when you stand in it

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

What we work on

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Bellahouston

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.

Bellahouston questions

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.

What information do you need?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole bath and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

Do you work in Bellahouston?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Bellahouston. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Does the bath have to be removed?

No. We resurface it in place, so the tiles and taps stay put.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

Which areas do you work in?

We cover the entire UK, including Bellahouston and the rest of Glasgow. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.

Can you do the outside of a roll-top?

Yes. Inside and out.
