About our bath re-enamelling in Hawkhead
Resurfacing renews the entire surface of the bath without taking anything out. It’s the answer when the whole bath is tired rather than one spot. We are frequently asked to fix a peeling or bubbling previous coating and lots of chips and rust spots, on basins & shower trays, acrylic baths and Victorian roll-tops.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Hawkhead and across Glasgow.

DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Hawkhead
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we will quote them together.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
How durable is a resurfaced bath?
Care for it and it lasts. Gentle cleaning, no suction mats.
Do you cover Hawkhead?
We do. Technicians travel to Hawkhead from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
How to look after the repair
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Have chips seen to early
- Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
Dry the bath after use if possible, especially in hard water areas, and rinse off any bath products.
The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and rust spots spread under the surface. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.
Different materials, different repairs
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.
What affects the price in Hawkhead
Resurfacing from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The size and number of damaged areas
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.
Getting a price from pictures
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A picture taken from further back
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.
When a repair is not the answer
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- A bath split right through the body
- Steel that has corroded right through
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
Materials we repair

Repairing versus replacing in Hawkhead
A new bath means a plumber, removing a heavy bath, re-tiling or making good the walls and days without a bathroom. Resurfacing renews the whole surface with the bath left where it is. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Hawkhead. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Why book with us
- Straight answers about what a repair can do
- We come to you, anywhere in the UK
- Most jobs done in one visit
- Fixed prices from your pictures
See our prices page and resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.
What we do, step by step
Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes the best part of a day, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
Before we arrive
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Let us know about parking or access
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
