Trusted bath re-enamelling in Earnock

What we do, step by step

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes most of the day, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
  2. Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
  3. The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
  4. Primer and finish coats are applied.
  5. We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.

Before we arrive

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Bath re-enamelling at your home in Earnock

Re-enamelling works especially well on cast iron and steel, and we can resurface acrylic baths as well. You end up with a smooth, glossy surface. If you’re dealing with an original cast iron bath that needs restoring and wear marks under the taps, we can typically put it right, on acrylic baths, Victorian roll-tops and pressed steel baths alike.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

What we are called out for in Earnock

Often the bath has just had decades of use, and only the surface is worn. Underneath, a cast iron or steel bath is typically as strong as ever.

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

  • An outdated colour you’d like to change
  • Staining under the taps and around the waste
  • A dull, rough surface that won’t come clean
  • A coating lifting around the plughole

What to look for in a quote

  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • When it can be used again
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price

How to compare quotes

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing the bath means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, re-tiling or making good the walls and several days without a working bathroom. Re-enamelling renews the whole surface without moving it. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Why book with us

  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • No extra charge for your area

When a repair is not the answer

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Steel that has corroded right through
  • Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
  • A metal bath with a through crack

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Earnock

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in South Lanarkshire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Looking after it afterwards

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
  • Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
  • Dry the bath after use to stop limescale

Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. Then, gentle cleaning with a soft cloth is enough.

Do not try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It just wears the enamel further.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, 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 isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Roll-top and period baths

We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

FAQs for Earnock

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

Can you fix a peeling bath coating?

In most cases. We strip the failing coating and resurface it properly. Tell us about it when you ask for a quote.

How long does re-enamelling last?

Care for it and it lasts. Avoid abrasive cleaners and suction mats.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.

Do you cover the entire of South Lanarkshire?

The whole UK, including all of South Lanarkshire. Send your postcode with your photos and we will offer you dates.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. If pictures don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
