When a repair is not the answer

For landlords and businesses

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Glasgow and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Mount Florida

The gloss on enamel is thin, and abrasive cleaning slowly wears it away. After years of use, the surface becomes porous and stains easily.

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

  • Thin, worn enamel in places
  • Stains that won’t shift
  • Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough
  • Chips and rust in more than one place

What your quote should include

  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • Who turns up on the day

10 questions to ask before you book

How the visit works

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job generally takes the best part of a day. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
  2. We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
  3. The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
  4. Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
  5. Once cured, normally by the next day, the bath is ready.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a cast iron bath is a big job: it’s very heavy, may need breaking up, and the replacement can be costly. Re-enamelling avoids all of 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 Mount Florida clients choose us

  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Same prices wherever you are

Prices and what affects them

Resurfacing from £350. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:

  • How many areas need work
  • The type of damage
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Unusual colours or finishes

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 photos

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • One picture of the whole bath
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Any details about the material

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Different materials, different repairs

Pressed steel

Steel baths re-enamel well, once any rust has been treated. Steel frequently rusts by the plughole, so we pay close attention there.

Acrylic

Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, with a coating system suited to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot.

How to care for the repair

To keep it looking its best:

  • Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs immediately
  • A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
  • Have chips seen to early
  • Avoid suction-cup mats

Rinse the bath and wipe it over after use, particularly where water is hard, to stop limescale building up.

Leave a peeling coating alone. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so have it stripped and resurfaced.

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Mount Florida

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.

What happens after I send photos?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Mount Florida.

What happens if you find more damage?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

How do I get a price for bath re-enamelling in Mount Florida?

Resurfacing from £350. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.

Is there any odour?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
