Bath re-enamelling at your home in Carron
After re-enamelling, the bath has a smooth, glossy, new-looking surface, without any of the disruption of replacing it. It suits anyone happy with the bathroom apart from the bath. If you are dealing with an outdated colour you’d like to change and an old resurfacing that’s failing, we can normally put it right, on basins & shower trays, pressed steel baths and Victorian roll-tops alike.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after the visit.

Work for landlords and builders
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Carron use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
When a repair is not the answer
A repair is not right for every job, for example:
- Problems we can’t see until an old finish comes off
- A metal bath with a through crack
- Holes rusted through the metal

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Carron
Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?
Yes, we do this regularly. Removing the old finish takes extra time, which we include in the price.
Do the materials smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.
Which areas do you work in?
Across the UK, and that includes Carron. Prices don’t change with location.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
How long does re-enamelling take?
Usually one day, with the bath ready the next day. Deeply pitted baths may need a second day.
Will the bath be moved?
No. We resurface it in place, so the tiles and taps stay put.
Do you cover Carron?
Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Carron from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Common problems we fix in Carron
The gloss on enamel is thin, and abrasive cleaning slowly wears it away. After years of use, the surface becomes porous and stains easily.
You may need us if you’ve spotted:
- Stains that will not shift
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
- Several chips and rust patches

Looking after it afterwards
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- Do not leave a chip unrepaired
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
Stick to mild, non-abrasive cleaners, don’t use suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.
Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It just wears the enamel further.
DIY kit or professional repair?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, 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.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
What affects the price in Carron
Resurfacing from £350. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Doing more than one item at once
- The type of damage
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
