FAQs for Aberchirder
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we will quote them together.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Are there extra charges for Aberchirder?
There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Can a coloured bath be made white?
Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.
Coloured bath resurfacing in Aberchirder without replacing anything
Most suites take one or two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. We regularly repair coloured basins, whole bathroom suites and avocado, pampas and pink baths, and people most frequently call us about a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and selling or letting a home with an old suite.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Aberchirder as everywhere else we work. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

What else we do in Aberchirder
The process
There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take a day or two, depending on how many items, tidy-up included.
- The room is protected and ventilated.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- The surface is prepared and primed.
- We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
- We leave everything to cure, normally until the day after.
Getting ready for the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Clear the area around the damage
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
How to get a price
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

What affects the price in Aberchirder
Resurfacing from £350. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- How much damage there is
- Whether we combine several jobs
- What the surface is made of
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.
Quotes from your pictures
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- Natural light rather than flash
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A wider photo showing the entire suite
- Where you are, by postcode
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Common problems we fix in Aberchirder
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. It’s normally the colour that dates them, not the condition.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Faded or patchy colour
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- A suite that does not match a new bathroom
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
Before you book anyone
- What protection goes down before work starts
- How changes to the job are handled
- Whether they match the colour on site
- How to care for the finish
Should you replace it?
Replacing a coloured suite means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing changes the colour with everything left in place. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.

DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
Work for landlords and builders
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.
When a repair isn’t the answer
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- The inside of a toilet bowl, unless we’ve agreed it will last
- Items cracked right through
- Fittings and taps (these are masked, not recoloured)
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
