How to look after the repair

Aftercare is simple:

  • Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
  • Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs right away
  • Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
  • Respect the curing time we give you

A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, especially in hard water areas, to stop limescale building up.

On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.

Bath re-enamelling in Hartwood, done in place

After re-enamelling, the bath has a smooth, glossy, new-looking surface, without any of the disruption of replacing it. It’s ideal if you like your bathroom but not the state of the bath. We regularly repair pressed steel baths, acrylic baths and basins & shower trays, and people most frequently call us about lots of chips and rust spots and staining under the taps and around the waste.

All our work comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in North Lanarkshire.

When a repair isn’t the answer

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
  • An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
  • Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

What we work on

  • Victorian roll-tops
  • Pressed steel baths
  • Cast iron baths
  • Basins & shower trays
  • Acrylic baths

For landlords and businesses

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

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 is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing the bath means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, making good the walls and tiles and several days without a working bathroom. Re-enamelling renews the entire surface with the bath left where it is. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.

What you get with us

  • Everything repaired in place
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited

Read our pricing and resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:

  • Access to the area
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Whether we combine several jobs

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Quotes from your pictures

You can typically get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Any details about the material
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A picture taken from further back

We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Hartwood

Do the materials smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.

How long is the bath unusable?

Generally one day, with the bath ready the following day. A badly pitted bath can need a second day.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across North Lanarkshire.

Will the new finish last?

A well-prepared finish lasts a long time if it’s looked after. Gentle cleaning, no suction mats.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?

Yes. We can do the inside and outside.

How do I book?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.

Do you cover the entire of North Lanarkshire?

Across the UK, and that includes Hartwood. Prices don’t change with location.

Can I fix it myself?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
