Bath re-enamelling in Maryhill without replacing anything
Re-enamelling works especially well on cast iron and steel, and acrylic baths can be resurfaced too. You end up with a smooth, glossy surface. We work on basins & shower trays, cast iron baths and acrylic baths, and people most frequently call us about thin, worn enamel in places and lots of chips and rust spots.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Work for landlords and builders
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Maryhill use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

Different materials, different repairs
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.
Pressed steel
Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we check it carefully.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- What kind of damage it is
- Access to the area
- How hard the colour is to match
- The size and number of damaged areas
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Send pictures for a quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- The material, if you know it
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.
What a repair cannot fix
Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- Steel that has corroded right through
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.
Materials we work on in Maryhill

What we’re called out for in Maryhill
Once enamel loses its gloss, it stains more easily, and scrubbing it wears it down further. At that stage, resurfacing is the fix.
The most common problems we are called about are:
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
- A coloured bath you want in white
- Worn patches where water runs and sits
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
Before you book anyone
- What happens if they find more damage
- What protection goes down before work starts
- When it can be used again

Maryhill questions
Will the new finish last?
That depends on preparation and how the bath is treated. Properly prepared and looked after, it lasts well, and our work is guaranteed for a year.
Which areas do you work in?
Across the UK. Prices don’t change with location.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
Can you quote from photos?
Normally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
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, then guarantee it for a year.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. 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.
Repair or replace: which is better?
If you like your bathroom but not your bath’s surface, resurfacing is the simplest answer. Nothing else is disturbed. Prices start from £350. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

How the visit works
We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. It normally takes the best part of a day, and we will tell you if anything changes.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
Ask for a price
Upload a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you are in Maryhill, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
