Materials and what they mean for the repair
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
How we handle bath re-enamelling in Carnwath
If your bath is sound but looks tired, resurfacing is normally the best value. It avoids removal, plumbing and re-tiling. If you’re dealing with enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough and a peeling or bubbling previous coating, we can help, whatever the material.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Carnwath and across South Lanarkshire.

Should you replace it?
A replacement frequently means several trades over several days. Re-enamelling is one technician, normally one day, with the bath back in use the following day. Prices start from £350. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Why Carnwath customers choose us

How the visit works
When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take most of the day. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
- We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
- We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
- The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure until the day after.
How to prepare
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
Getting a price
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
Advice
What a repair can’t fix
We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
- Steel that has corroded right through
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before booking.
Materials we work on in Carnwath

Common problems we fix in Carnwath
Hard water speeds up the wear, and gritty cleaners are the worst culprits.
Common reasons people in Carnwath contact us include:
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
- Several chips and rust patches
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
- A roll-top that’s seen better days
What to look for in a quote
- Whether the price covers travel
- How to look after the finish
- How soon you can use it again
- How your room will be protected
Keeping it looking good
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- Do not leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
The first few days matter most: give it the full curing time, then clean it gently. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.
If a previous coating is starting to peel, don’t pick at it. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so have it stripped and resurfaced.
