How we handle bath re-enamelling in Burnbrae

Most baths are re-enamelled in a day, with the bath ready to use the following day. Taps, tiles, panels and plumbing all stay in place. Common call-outs are for enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough and thin, worn enamel in places, on cast iron baths, acrylic baths and Victorian roll-tops.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Burnbrae

Do you cover the whole of North Lanarkshire?

Across the UK, and that includes Burnbrae. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Can you fix a peeling bath coating?

In most cases. We strip the failing coating and resurface it properly. Tell us about it when you ask for a quote.

What do you need from me?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.

What happens next?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

Can you do the outside of a roll-top?

Yes, frequently. The inside is resurfaced, and we can refinish the outside as well.

How long does re-enamelling last?

Look after it and it lasts. Gentle cleaning, no suction mats.

Is there any odour?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

Looking after it afterwards

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Never use suction bath mats
  • Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
  • Do not leave a chip unrepaired
  • Repair dripping taps early

Treat the new finish gently at first: give it the full curing time, then clean it gently. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.

Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time, and each one adds to the preparation. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.

What affects the price in Burnbrae

Resurfacing from £350. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We take into account:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How many areas need work

We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Quotes from your pictures

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

Different materials, different repairs

Roll-top and period baths

We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.

Pressed steel

Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.

Repairing versus replacing in Burnbrae

Replacing a cast iron bath is a big job: they’re heavy, often need breaking up, and a new one isn’t cheap. Re-enamelling avoids all of it. Prices start from £350. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Burnbrae. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Our hiring checklist

How it works

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes most of the day, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
  2. Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
  3. The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
  4. Primer and finish coats are applied.
  5. The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.

Before we arrive

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
