Aftercare tips
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Respect the curing time we give you
- Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
- Never use suction bath mats
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs immediately
Dry the bath after use if possible, and rinse away any product left on the surface.
Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time, and each one adds to the preparation. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.
How we handle bath re-enamelling in Old Kilpatrick
If your bath is sound but looks tired, resurfacing is normally the best value. It avoids removal, plumbing and re-tiling. Our technicians work on pressed steel baths, basins & shower trays and cast iron baths, and common reasons people contact us are a roll-top that’s seen better days and a bath in a colour that no longer suits.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Old Kilpatrick as everywhere else we work.

How we price bath re-enamelling
Prices start from £350. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. This is what makes a difference:
- How hard the colour is to match
- The material
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Access to the area
Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Something in shot to show the size

FAQs for Old Kilpatrick
Do you come to Old Kilpatrick?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Old Kilpatrick. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across West Dunbartonshire.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Can you change the colour of my bath?
Yes, most people go for white. Mention the colour you want when you send photos.
How soon can you come?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.
Is there a smell?
Yes, while we’re applying the finish. We set up ventilation and the smell fades as it cures.
How long does re-enamelling take?
Typically a day, then it’s ready to use the following day. A badly pitted bath can need a second day.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacement only makes sense in a few cases: a cracked-through bath, a change of size or shape, or a full refit. In most other cases, resurfacing is the better choice. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Old Kilpatrick. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Why us?
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- We come to you, anywhere in the UK
- Colour mixed on the day to match
See our prices page or bath cost comparison.
DIY kit or professional repair?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
The process
There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take a full day, tidy-up included.
- We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
- The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
- Once cured, normally by the next day, the bath is ready.
How to prepare
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Keep a parking space free if you can

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole bath, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
Advice
Also in Old Kilpatrick
Honest limits
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- A bath split right through the body
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
- A bath that’s rusted through
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.
Materials we repair
- Acrylic baths
- Cast iron baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Pressed steel baths
- Victorian roll-tops
Materials and what they mean for the repair
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.
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
