Bath Re-enamelling for Palnure homes
Full bath re-enamelling and resurfacing at your home in Palnure, with a one-year guarantee on every repair.
- Resurfacing from £350
- Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
Materials and what they mean for the repair
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.
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Bath re-enamelling in Palnure without replacing anything
Re-enamelling works especially well on cast iron and steel, and acrylic baths can be resurfaced too. The result is a smooth, even, glossy finish. Typical jobs include thin, worn enamel in places and staining under the taps and around the waste, across cast iron baths, acrylic baths and Victorian roll-tops.
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Dumfries and Galloway.

Work for landlords and builders
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Dumfries and Galloway and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.
How to look after the repair
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- Respect the curing time we give you
- Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- Do not leave a chip unrepaired
Treat the new finish gently at first: give it the full curing time, then clean it gently. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.
If a previous coating is starting to peel, don’t pick at it. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so have it stripped and resurfaced.
How we price bath re-enamelling
Prices start from £350. We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The material and finish
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. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- A photo taken from further back
- Any details about the material
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

What we do, step by step
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes most of the day, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
Preparing for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

- A roll-top that is seen better days
- Enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough
- Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off

- Holes rusted through the metal
- Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Palnure
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.
What happens after I send photos?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
What happens if you find more damage?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
Do you work in Palnure?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Palnure for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
How long is the bath unusable?
Most baths are done in a day, ready the next day. We give you timings with the quote.
Is there a smell?
A little, during the work. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.
How durable is a resurfaced bath?
That depends on preparation and how the bath is treated. With good preparation and gentle cleaning it lasts a long time, and our work is guaranteed for a year.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a cast iron bath is a big job: it’s very heavy, may need breaking up, and the replacement can be costly. Resurfacing in place avoids that entirely. Prices start from £350. Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
