What bath re-enamelling costs
Prices start from £350. There’s no area surcharge for Galston. The price reflects:
- The material
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Access to the area
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Quotes from your photos
You can take the photos on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- What it’s made of, if you know

Bath re-enamelling in Galston, done in place
We don’t move the bath, so the taps, tiles and plumbing are not touched. It typically takes one visit, and can be used again the next day. We regularly repair acrylic baths, Victorian roll-tops and basins & shower trays, and common reasons people get in touch are chips and rust in more than one place and worn patches where water runs and sits.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will sort it.

Repairing versus replacing in Galston
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 also far quicker. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

- 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
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Ensure the room can be ventilated

Aftercare tips
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- Repair dripping taps early
- Do not leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- Have chips seen to early
Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. Then, gentle cleaning with a soft cloth is enough.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Repairs by material
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
