About our bath re-enamelling in Forth
Many of the baths we re-enamel are period roll-tops, which would be difficult and expensive to replace. Doing them in place keeps an original feature. We regularly repair basins & shower trays, acrylic baths and Victorian roll-tops, and the jobs we see most are wear marks under the taps and chips and rust in more than one place.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee.

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Forth?
Older baths frequently have several problems at once: worn patches, chips, rust spots and stains. Re-enamelling deals with all of them in one go.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
- Brown or grey marks that do not clean off
- Worn patches where water runs and sits
- Several chips and rust patches

When we’d advise against a repair
We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- Steel that has corroded right through
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Pressed steel baths
- Cast iron baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Victorian roll-tops
- Acrylic baths
Work for landlords and builders
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 is easier on the people living there.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- How many items we do on one visit
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The type of damage
- How many areas need work
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.
Getting a price from pictures
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Something in shot to show the size
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
We price from photos so you do not 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.
What we do, step by step
We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. Allow a full day, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
Getting ready for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
Getting a price

DIY repairs versus a professional job
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 isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
Common questions in Forth
Which areas do you work in?
The entire UK, including all of South Lanarkshire. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Is there a call-out fee?
We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
How durable is a resurfaced bath?
A well-prepared finish lasts a long time if it’s looked after. Gentle cleaning, no suction mats.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole bath and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
How quickly can you book me in?
We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Can pets and children be at home?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Should you replace it?
A refit takes several trades and several days. Resurfacing is one technician, normally in a day, with the bath ready the day after. Prices start from £350. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.
Why us?
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- A fixed quote before you book

What your bath is made of matters
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
