Bath re-enamelling in East Kilbride without replacing anything
We re-enamel plenty of period and roll-top baths, which are heavy, hard to move and costly to replace. Resurfacing them in place keeps the original bath. We regularly repair acrylic baths, Victorian roll-tops and pressed steel baths, and common reasons people get in touch are thin, worn enamel in places and stains that won’t shift.
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in South Lanarkshire.

The process
Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a full day, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
- 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.
How to prepare
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Have a window or extractor fan available

Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacement only makes sense in a few cases: a cracked-through bath, a change of size or shape, or a full refit. In most other cases, resurfacing is the better choice. Prices start from £350. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

- Same prices wherever you are

Common questions in East Kilbride
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
How long does re-enamelling take?
Normally one day, with the bath ready the following day. Deeply pitted baths may need a second day.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote.
Can you quote from pictures?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
Can tenants book a repair?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Do you resurface freestanding baths?
Yes. Inside and out.
Will there be a smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work.
What information do you need?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.
What your bath is made of matters
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is what we repair.
Acrylic
Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, with a coating system suited to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported.
What we cannot put right
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- A bath split right through the body
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.
Materials we work on in East Kilbride

What else we do in East Kilbride
For landlords and businesses
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
Do you need bath re-enamelling in East Kilbride?
Enamel’s shine is only skin deep, and every scrub with an abrasive cleaner takes a little away. Eventually the surface turns porous and stains.
You may need us if you’ve spotted:
- A dull, rough surface that will not come clean
- Thin, worn enamel in places
- A coloured bath you want in white
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
Comparing quotes
- Whether the price covers travel
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- How the room is protected while they work
Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Keeping it looking good
It’s all simple stuff:
- Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
Wipe the bath dry after use where you can, and rinse off any bath products.
Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It just wears the enamel further.
