About our bath re-enamelling in Philipshill
Resurfacing renews the entire surface of the bath without a refit. It’s the answer when the entire bath is tired rather than one spot. We work on cast iron baths, basins & shower trays and pressed steel baths, and the jobs we see most are a peeling or bubbling previous coating and staining under the taps and around the waste.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking.

What your bath is made of matters
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Pressed steel
Steel baths re-enamel well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we pay close attention there.

The process
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. Allow the best part of a day.
- We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- 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
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Aftercare tips
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Respect the curing time we give you
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
- Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
Treat the new finish gently at first: give it the full curing time, then clean it gently. After that, no abrasives and no suction mats.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so have it stripped and resurfaced.
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
Questions from Philipshill
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.
Can you make a coloured bath white?
Yes, most people go for white. Tell us what you’d like when you ask for a quote.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across South Lanarkshire.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
How long does re-enamelling take?
One day for most baths, ready the next day. We will confirm timings when we quote.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
What a repair cannot fix
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
- A cast iron or steel bath that is cracked right through
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
Materials we work on in Philipshill
- Pressed steel baths
- Cast iron baths
- Acrylic baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Victorian roll-tops
Repairing versus replacing in Philipshill
Getting a cast iron bath out is hard work: it’s very heavy, may need breaking up, and the replacement can be costly. Re-enamelling avoids all of it. Prices start from £350. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Why us?
- One visit for most repairs
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- No extra charge for your area

Work for landlords and builders
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
