Bath re-enamelling at your home in Carnsmerry
After re-enamelling, the bath has a smooth, glossy, new-looking surface, without any of the disruption of replacing it. It’s ideal if you like your bathroom but not the state of the bath. We’re frequently asked to fix an outdated colour you’d like to change and worn patches where water runs and sits, on Victorian roll-tops, pressed steel baths and cast iron baths.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Repairs by material
Pressed steel
Steel baths re-enamel well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we pay close attention there.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is what we repair.
DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
When we would advise against a repair
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
- A bath that’s rusted through
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Acrylic baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Cast iron baths
- Basins & shower trays
How it works
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take most of the day. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
- We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
- The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
- The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure until the day after.
How to prepare
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Clear the area around the damage

How do I get a price for bath re-enamelling in Carnsmerry?
Prices start from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Are you accredited?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

No, it stays where it is. Everything is done in your bathroom, with the room protected and ventilated.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details.
What we are called out for in Carnsmerry
A dull surface stains and holds dirt, and scrubbing it wears it down further. That’s the point where re-enamelling makes sense.
Get in touch if you’ve noticed any of these:
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
- A dull, rough surface that won’t come clean
- A coating lifting around the plughole
- Thin, worn enamel in places
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether they match the colour on site
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
- How the room is protected while they work
- Whether a trained technician does the job
Looking after it afterwards
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Never use suction bath mats
The first few days matter most: let it cure fully, then use mild cleaners only. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.

What else we do in Carnsmerry
Should you replace it?
A new bath means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, making good the walls and tiles and days without a bathroom. Re-enamelling renews the whole surface without moving it. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
