Bath re-enamelling at your home in Uphall Station

We do not move the bath, so the taps, tiles and plumbing are not touched. It usually takes one visit, and can be used again the following day. Typical jobs include enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough and a peeling or bubbling previous coating, across acrylic baths, pressed steel baths and Victorian roll-tops.

Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee.

The process

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job normally takes the best part of a day. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
  2. We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
  3. Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
  4. We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
  5. The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

How to get a price

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

  • Worn patches where water runs and sits
  • A bath that stays dull however much you clean it

Our hiring checklist

Should you replace it?

Replacing a bath can take several days across several trades. Re-enamelling is one technician, generally one day, and the bath is usable the day after. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

What you get with us

  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Uphall Station

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it usually saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you will get one combined price.

Do you need to take the bath out?

Not at all. We work on the bath in place, with the room protected and ventilated.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Is the work guaranteed?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Do you cover the whole of West Lothian?

All of West Lothian, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

How do I book?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We come back with a fixed quote, usually with dates to choose from. You’re under no obligation.

Can you fix a peeling bath coating?

In most cases. We strip the failing coating and resurface it properly. Mention it when you send photos.

How to look after the repair

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Never use suction bath mats
  • Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
  • Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs right away
  • A dripping tap should be fixed promptly

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.

If a previous coating is starting to peel, do not pick at it. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so have it stripped and resurfaced.

Can I fix it myself?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

What bath re-enamelling costs

Prices start from £350. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • What kind of damage it is

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Getting a price from pictures

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

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • The material, if you know it
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Work for landlords and builders

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

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.

Roll-top and period baths

We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
