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
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
About our bath re-enamelling in Dalmuir
Many of the baths we re-enamel are period roll-tops, which are heavy, hard to move and costly to replace. Resurfacing them in place keeps the original bath. We work on basins & shower trays, pressed steel baths and acrylic baths, and people most often call us about brown or grey marks that don’t clean off and worn patches where water runs and sits.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Dalmuir and across West Dunbartonshire.

Repair or replace: which is better?
For a sound bath, resurfacing costs far less than replacement, once you add removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating to the price of a new bath. It’s much quicker too. Prices start from £350. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. The main factors are:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- What the surface is made of
- How hard the colour is to match
- How easy the damage is to reach
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Send pictures for a quote
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Something in shot to show the size
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

The process
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job generally takes the best part of a day. We tidy up before we leave 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.
- We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
- The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Ensure the area is dry
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Point us to the nearest place to park

FAQs for Dalmuir
How long does re-enamelling last?
That depends on preparation and how the bath is treated. With good preparation and gentle cleaning it lasts a long time, and our work is guaranteed for a year.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send pictures.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Will there be fumes?
Yes, while we’re applying the finish. We set up ventilation and the smell fades as it cures.
Will the price change on the day?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Aftercare tips
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Do not leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- Repair dripping taps early
- Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
- Avoid suction-cup mats
Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, avoid suction bath mats, and don’t leave bottles or razors standing on the surface.
If a previous coating is starting to peel, don’t pick at it. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
What we are called out for in Dalmuir
Previous coatings can fail too, lifting by the plughole or blistering. We strip what’s failing and start again.
You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:
