Signs you need coloured bath resurfacing in Abercorn
Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. The problem is generally the colour, not the bath.
People normally call us when they notice one of these:
- 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

What we cannot put right
We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- 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)
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Abercorn
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we will arrange it.
Abercorn questions
What do you need from me?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.
Which areas do you work in?
The entire UK, including all of Edinburgh. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
Is there a guarantee?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Are there extra charges for Abercorn?
We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Do you work in Abercorn?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Abercorn and the rest of Edinburgh. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

DIY kit or professional repair?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

How it works

- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
- We leave everything to cure, usually until the following day.
How to prepare
- Open a window if you can
- Let us know if it has been repaired before

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

What affects the price in Abercorn
Resurfacing from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- How many items we do on one visit
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Abercorn. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Getting a price from photos
When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A wider photo showing the whole suite
- Where you are, by postcode
- The material, if you know it
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the suite, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
