About our bath re-enamelling in Drakemyre
We re-enamel a lot of period and roll-top baths, which are heavy, hard to move and costly to replace. Doing them in place keeps an original feature. Our technicians work on acrylic baths, basins & shower trays and Victorian roll-tops, and the jobs we see most are wear marks under the taps and enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Repairs by material
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

What else we do in Drakemyre
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
Repair or replace in Drakemyre?
Replacing a bath can take several days across several trades. Re-enamelling is one technician, usually one day, and the bath is usable the day after. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Why Drakemyre clients choose us
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
Read our pricing or resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.
How it works
We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. Allow the best part of a day, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
Before we arrive
- Let us know about parking or access
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Keep a parking space free if you can
Ask for a price
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Common problems we fix in Drakemyre
Enamel doesn’t fail overnight. Abrasive cleaners, limescale and years of use wear the gloss away, typically first under the taps and around the waste.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- An old resurfacing that’s failing
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
- Stains that will not shift
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
What to look for in a quote
- What preparation is included
- How the room is protected while they work
- How to care for the finish
- Whether the price covers travel
Keeping it looking good
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Never use suction bath mats
- Have chips seen to early
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
Wipe the bath dry after use where you can, and rinse off any bath products.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and any rust spreads underneath. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.
What affects the price in Drakemyre
Prices start from £350. There’s no area surcharge for Drakemyre. The price reflects:
- How hard the colour is to match
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The material
A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from photos
You can usually get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- One picture of the entire bath
We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
Drakemyre questions
How long will the bath be out of use?
Generally a day, then it’s ready to use the following day. Deeply pitted baths may need a second day.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We come back with a fixed price, plus dates. There is no obligation to book.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across North Ayrshire.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
What areas do you cover?
We cover the whole UK, including Drakemyre and the rest of North Ayrshire. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
