Bath re-enamelling near Roberton

What a repair can’t fix

It helps to know what we cannot do too:

  • A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • Holes rusted through the metal

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.

Materials we work on in Roberton

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

About our bath re-enamelling in Roberton

Cast iron and steel baths are ideal for re-enamelling, and we can resurface acrylic baths as well. You end up with a smooth, glossy surface. We regularly repair acrylic baths, cast iron baths and pressed steel baths, and common reasons people get in touch are thin, worn enamel in places and stains that won’t shift.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Why repair rather than replace?

A refit takes several trades and several days. Re-enamelling takes one technician and generally one day, with the bath ready the next day. Prices start from £350. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book.

Why us?

  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • A fixed quote before booking
  • No extra charge for your area

Common problems we fix in Roberton

Often the bath has just had decades of use. The body of the bath is typically perfectly sound.

The most common problems we’re called about are:

  • Chips and rust in more than one place
  • A roll-top that’s seen better days
  • Staining under the taps and around the waste
  • A bath that stays dull however much you clean it

Our hiring checklist

Roberton: your questions answered

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

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

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.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Do you cover the entire of South Lanarkshire?

We cover the entire UK, including Roberton and the rest of South Lanarkshire. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners in Roberton.

Do you need to take the bath out?

No, it stays where it is. We work on the bath in place, with the room masked and ventilated.

How to care for the repair

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
  • Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Wash away dyes and oils after use
  • A dripping tap should be fixed promptly

Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, because they can mark the finish. Fix dripping taps quickly.

Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.

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.

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.

The process

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. The job generally runs to the best part of a day, tidy-up included.

  1. We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
  2. Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
  3. We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
  4. We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
  5. The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.

How to prepare

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

What bath re-enamelling costs

Prices start from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How much damage there is

Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

Send pictures for a quote

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • One picture of the whole bath
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
