Bath re-enamelling in Wishaw without replacing anything
When a bath is structurally fine but worn out on the surface, resurfacing is normally the best value. It avoids removal, plumbing and re-tiling. We’re often asked to fix worn patches where water runs and sits and an outdated colour you’d like to change, in acrylic baths, Victorian roll-tops and basins & shower trays.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re covered after the visit.

How we price bath re-enamelling
Prices start from £350. We don’t charge extra for travel to Wishaw. The price depends on:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- What the surface is made of
- How many items we do on one visit
- The colour and finish to match
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Quotes from your pictures
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A picture taken from further back
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Repair or replace: which is better?
For a sound bath, resurfacing costs far less than replacement, once you add removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating to the price of a new bath. It’s much quicker too. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

- Work done at your home or business
- No extra charge for your area
- One-year guarantee on every repair
Read our prices page and guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.
What a repair can’t fix
We will not take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off
- A metal bath with a through crack
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.
Materials we work on in Wishaw
- Acrylic baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Cast iron baths
- Victorian roll-tops
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Cast iron
Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Wishaw
Many baths we resurface have simply been well used, with nothing wrong except the surface. Underneath, a cast iron or steel bath is normally as strong as ever.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- Chips and rust in more than one place
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
- A roll-top that’s seen better days
- An old resurfacing that’s failing
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- Who will actually do the work
- Whether the price covers travel
- What happens if they find more damage
Keeping it looking good
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- Respect the curing time we give you
- Never use suction bath mats
A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, especially in hard water areas, to stop limescale building up.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and rust spots spread under the surface. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
FAQs for Wishaw
Will the new finish last?
It depends on preparation, use and care. With good preparation and gentle cleaning it lasts a long time, and it’s guaranteed for a year.

There is some smell while the coating is applied, which is why we ventilate the bathroom. It clears as the finish cures.

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.
