  • A coloured bath you want in white
  • Lots of chips and rust spots
  • An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
  • A bath that stays dull however much you clean it

What your quote should include

About our bath re-enamelling in Lesmahagow

After re-enamelling, the bath has a smooth, glossy, new-looking surface, but without the cost and upheaval of a refit. It suits anyone happy with the bathroom apart from the bath. Whether it’s an outdated colour you’d like to change and a roll-top that’s seen better days, we can help.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Lesmahagow as everywhere else we work.

Work for landlords and builders

For anyone letting property in or around Lesmahagow, we will quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Lesmahagow use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.

What affects the price in Lesmahagow

Prices start from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Lesmahagow. What changes the price is:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How much damage there is
  • The type of damage
  • Unusual colours or finishes

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

Getting a price from photos

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • The material, if you know it
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Pricing is simple: 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 price back. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Should you replace it?

Replacing the bath means a plumber, removing a heavy bath, re-tiling or making good the walls and several days without a working bathroom. Re-enamelling renews the entire surface without moving it. 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.

Why us?

  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Typically one visit, start to finish
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • One-year guarantee on every repair

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

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.

When a repair isn’t the answer

It helps to know what we can’t do:

  • A cast iron or steel bath that’s cracked right through
  • Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
  • Leaks from fittings rather than the bath

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

Surfaces we repair

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

Different materials, different repairs

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.

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.

How it works

We begin by going over the job with you. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. It normally takes the best part of a day, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.

  1. We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
  2. Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
  3. The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
  4. Primer and finish coats are applied.
  5. We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.

How to prepare

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Ask for a price
