Bath re-enamelling at your home in Cowdenbeath
Cast iron and steel baths are ideal for re-enamelling, and acrylic baths can be resurfaced too. You end up with a smooth, glossy surface. Our technicians work on acrylic baths, cast iron baths and basins & shower trays, and the jobs we see most are an old resurfacing that’s failing and a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean.
Every job is backed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

What a repair cannot fix
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Common questions in Cowdenbeath
Will there be fumes?
Yes, while we’re applying the finish. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.
Can you quote from pictures?
Generally, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send pictures.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Do you charge for travel?
There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
What happens if you find more damage?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.
Can I fix it myself?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

What else we do in Cowdenbeath
How it works
On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job normally takes the best part of a day. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
How to prepare
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Clear the area around the damage
Ask for a price
We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- What kind of damage it is
- What the surface is made of
A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- Details of any past repairs
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
- The material, if you know it
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

How to care for the repair
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
Rinse the bath and wipe it over after use, especially in hard water areas, so limescale cannot build up.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and any rust spreads underneath. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.
