Bath re-enamelling in Moffat Mills

Bath re-enamelling at your home in Moffat Mills

Many of the baths we re-enamel are period roll-tops, which are heavy, hard to move and costly to replace. Doing them in place keeps an original feature. Typical jobs include stains that won’t shift and a peeling or bubbling previous coating, in pressed steel baths, Victorian roll-tops and cast iron baths.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

FAQs for Moffat Mills

Will the price change on the day?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Do you cover the whole of North Lanarkshire?

Everywhere in the UK, Moffat Mills included. Travel is included in the price.

Can you quote from photos?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Will the bath be moved?

Not at all. Everything is done in your bathroom, with the room protected and ventilated.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

How much does bath re-enamelling cost in Moffat Mills?

Prices start from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You will get a fixed figure before booking.

What information do you need?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

Aftercare tips

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:

  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
  • A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
  • Do not leave a chip unrepaired

Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, as they can stain. Repair dripping taps promptly.

Leave a peeling coating alone. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so have it stripped and resurfaced.

When a repair isn’t the answer

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
  • A metal bath with a through crack
  • A bath that’s rusted through

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.

Materials we repair

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

Repairs by material

Pressed steel

Steel baths re-enamel well, once any rust has been treated. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we check it carefully.

Roll-top and period baths

Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.

How it works

The work is clean and fairly quiet. Protection goes down first, then the work takes most of the day. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
  2. Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
  3. We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
  4. We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
  5. The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.

Preparing for the visit

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Let us know about parking or access

Ask for a price

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Why repair rather than replace?

Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. 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 there are no surprises on the day.
