Landlords, agents and businesses in Muirhouse

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

How we handle bath re-enamelling in Muirhouse

Cast iron and steel baths are ideal for re-enamelling, and we can resurface acrylic baths as well. The result is a smooth, even, glossy finish. We regularly repair basins & shower trays, acrylic baths and Victorian roll-tops, and the jobs we see most are an outdated colour you’d like to change and lots of chips and rust spots.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a cast iron bath is a big job: they’re heavy, frequently need breaking up, and a new one is not cheap. Resurfacing in place avoids that entirely. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

What affects the price in Muirhouse

Resurfacing from £350. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We take into account:

What the surface is made of
Doing more than one item at once
How many areas need work
Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Quotes from your pictures

Two or three clear photos are usually enough. It helps if you send:

A clear, close picture of the problem area
Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
Your postcode, so we can check dates
What it’s made of, if you know

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

How to care for the repair

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs right away
Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
Avoid suction-cup mats
Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas

Give the finish its full curing time before using the bath. After that, a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs.

Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It removes more of the surface.

Questions from Muirhouse

Will the new finish last?

It depends on preparation, use and care. With good preparation and gentle cleaning it lasts a long time, and it’s guaranteed for a year.

Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?

Yes, roll-tops are a big part of our work. We resurface the inside, and the outside can be refinished too.

Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?

Yes, we do this regularly. Stripping the old coating adds time, so it’s reflected in the quote.

Which areas do you work in?

We cover the whole UK, including Muirhouse and the rest of North Lanarkshire. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

How much does bath re-enamelling cost in Muirhouse?

Prices start from £350. Every job gets a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item with your ML1 postcode.

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

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

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.

Different materials, different repairs

Acrylic

Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, using a system that bonds to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported.

Pressed steel

Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.

How it works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which generally takes a full day. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
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

Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
