How we handle bath re-enamelling in Gartloch
Re-enamelling gives a worn bath a new glossy surface without taking anything out. It’s the answer when the entire bath is tired rather than one spot. We’re often asked to fix an original cast iron bath that needs restoring and a bath that stays dull however much you clean it, in pressed steel baths, basins & shower trays and Victorian roll-tops.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

Looking after it afterwards
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Repair dripping taps early
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs straight away
- Store bottles off the bath
- Do not leave a chip unrepaired
Rinse the bath and wipe it over after use, especially in hard water areas, so limescale cannot build up.
Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It removes more of the surface.

What your bath is made of matters
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Pressed steel
Steel baths re-enamel well, once any rust has been treated. Steel often rusts by the plughole, so we check it carefully.
What we do, step by step
There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take a full day, tidy-up included.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
- We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
- The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
- The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
Ask for a price
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.
Advice
When to call us in Gartloch
Sometimes it’s an earlier resurfacing that has failed, lifting by the plughole or blistering. Failing coatings are stripped back before we resurface.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
- Several chips and rust patches
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
What to look for in a quote
- How the colour is matched
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- How the room is protected while they work
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
DIY repairs versus a professional job
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

Repair or replace in Gartloch?
Getting a cast iron bath out is hard work: it’s very heavy, may need breaking up, and the replacement can be costly. Resurfacing in place avoids that entirely. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

- Straight answers about what a repair can do
- Generally one visit, start to finish
