Repairing versus replacing in Crosslee
Getting a cast iron bath out is hard work: they’re heavy, often need breaking up, and a new one isn’t cheap. Re-enamelling avoids all of it. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Crosslee. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Cast iron
Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.

Looking after it afterwards
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Store bottles off the bath
- Never use suction bath mats
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
Rinse the bath and wipe it over after use, particularly where water is hard, to stop limescale building up.
Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It removes more of the surface and makes resurfacing more work.
What a repair cannot fix
In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- A metal bath with a through crack
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Common questions in Crosslee
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we will quote them together.
Which areas do you work in?
We cover the entire UK, including Crosslee and the rest of Renfrewshire. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll offer you dates.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Is there any odour?
There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Does re-enamelling smell?
Yes, while we’re applying the finish. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.
Will the bath be moved?
No. We resurface it in place, so nothing else is disturbed.

How it works
There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to a full day, including clearing up.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
How to get a price
We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
