How we handle bath re-enamelling in Laurieston
We re-enamel plenty of period and roll-top baths, which are heavy, hard to move and costly to replace. Resurfacing them in place keeps the original bath. Common call-outs are for worn patches where water runs and sits and brown or grey marks that don’t clean off, across cast iron baths, pressed steel baths and acrylic baths.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Laurieston and across Glasgow.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
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 then the old filler has to be removed first.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
When a repair isn’t the answer
A repair is not right for every job, including:
- A bath split right through the body
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
- A bath that is rusted through

How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We look at:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How hard the colour is to match
- What the surface is made of
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
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. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Quotes from your pictures
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
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 we’ll reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
