What we do, step by step
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes the best part of a day, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
- We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
- The bath is left to cure and can normally be used the next day.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Bath re-enamelling in Lockerbie without replacing anything
The bath stays where it is, so your taps, tiles and plumbing are left alone. It usually takes one visit, and can be used again the day after. If you’re dealing with wear marks under the taps and a coloured bath you want in white, we can normally put it right.
Every job is backed for twelve months in Lockerbie and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
When a repair isn’t the answer
A repair is not always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- Holes rusted through the metal
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
Materials we repair
- Basins & shower trays
- Cast iron baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Acrylic baths
- Pressed steel baths
What bath re-enamelling costs
Prices start from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- Access to the area
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How hard the colour is to match
- What kind of damage it is
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
Getting a price from pictures
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A photo taken from further back
- The material, if you know it
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
Upload a photo of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Lockerbie, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
When to call us in Lockerbie
Enamel does not fail overnight. Abrasive cleaners, limescale and years of use dull the surface, starting where water runs and sits.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- An old resurfacing that is failing
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
- A roll-top that’s seen better days
- Thin, worn enamel in places
What to look for in a quote
- What aftercare is recommended
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- When it can be used again
Different materials, different repairs
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.
Keeping it looking good
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- Never use suction bath mats
- Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- Fix dripping taps quickly
Wipe the bath dry after use where you can, and rinse away any product left on the surface.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and rust spots spread under the surface. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.

Why repair rather than replace?
Replacement only makes sense in a few cases: a cracked-through bath, a change of size or shape, or a full refit. Otherwise, resurfacing typically wins. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.
