- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
- Problems we can’t see until an old finish comes off
- Holes rusted through the metal
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
Surfaces we repair

Bath re-enamelling in Swinhill without replacing anything
The bath stays where it is, so the taps, tiles and plumbing aren’t touched. Most baths are done in one visit, and can be used again the day after. Common call-outs are for chips and rust in more than one place and wear marks under the taps, on basins & shower trays, acrylic baths and Victorian roll-tops.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

What your bath is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, using a system that bonds to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported.
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Common questions in Swinhill
Can landlords book you?
Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.
Do you cover the whole of South Lanarkshire?
Everywhere in the UK, Swinhill included. Travel is included in the price.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Is there a smell?
A little, during the work. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.
Can you quote from pictures?
Typically, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
How long does re-enamelling last?
Look after it and it lasts. Avoid abrasive cleaners and suction mats.
For landlords and businesses
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
How it works
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, which generally takes the best part of a day. If anything looks different from your pictures, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- 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
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Keep a parking space free if you can
How to get a price
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.
Related advice
Why repair rather than replace?
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. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Why book with us
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- One-year guarantee on every repair
- No extra charge for your area
- One visit for most repairs

Keeping it looking good
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, because they can mark the finish. Repair dripping taps promptly.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading and make the job bigger. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.
Can I fix it myself?
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.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
When to call us in Swinhill
Frequently the bath has just had decades of use, with nothing wrong except the surface. The body of the bath is normally perfectly sound.
Look out for these signs:
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
- A coloured bath you want in white
- Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough
- Lots of chips and rust spots
