Bath re-enamelling for Newarthill homes

How we handle bath re-enamelling in Newarthill

Re-enamelling gives a worn bath a new glossy surface without taking anything out. It suits baths that are dull, stained, rough or chipped all over. Whether it’s several chips and rust patches and a bath in a colour that no longer suits, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.

All our work comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in North Lanarkshire.

Newarthill: your questions answered

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We come back with a fixed price. There’s no obligation to book.

Is my repair covered?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Normally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Do you resurface freestanding baths?

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

Can you resurface a pink bath in white?

Yes, white is the usual choice. Tell us what you’d like when you ask for a quote.

Do you do work for letting agents?

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

What happens on the day

Visits start with a quick look at the job together. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. It normally takes a full day, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.

  1. The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
  2. Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
  3. We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
  4. We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
  5. The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure until the day after.

Before we arrive

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Clear the area around the damage

Getting a price

You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Advice

How we price bath re-enamelling

Resurfacing from £350. You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • What the surface is made of
  • How much damage there is
  • What kind of damage it is

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.

Getting a price from pictures

You can take the photos on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Ensure they show:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A photo taken from further back

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or ring us. We will say right away if a repair is the right fix.

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Newarthill?

Many baths we resurface have simply been well used. Underneath, a cast iron or steel bath is typically as strong as ever.

Send us a picture if you notice any of these:

  • An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
  • A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
  • A coating lifting around the plughole
  • An outdated colour you’d like to change

Before booking anyone

  • How the room is protected while they work
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • What prep work is covered

Choosing a repair company

Different materials, different repairs

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.

Pressed steel

Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

Honest limits

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

  • A cast iron or steel bath that is cracked right through
  • Holes rusted through the metal
  • Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

Surfaces we repair

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

Keeping it looking good

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Respect the curing time we give you
  • Fix dripping taps quickly
  • Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • 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.

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

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
