  • Selling or letting a home with an old suite
  • A suite that does not match a new bathroom
  • Faded or patchy colour
  • A dated coloured suite you’d like in white

How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Aberlour

Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. A full suite is normally done in one to two days. We are frequently asked to fix faded or patchy colour and selling or letting a home with an old suite, in coloured basins, whole bathroom suites and coloured shower trays.

Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

What a repair can’t fix

A repair is not always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:

  • 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 pictures and we will say what we think before you book.

Materials we work on in Aberlour

  • Whole bathroom suites
  • Coloured basins
  • Coloured shower trays
  • Avocado, pampas and pink baths

Your questions about coloured bath resurfacing in Aberlour

Can tenants book a repair?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.

Which areas do you work in?

Everywhere in the UK, Aberlour included. There’s no extra charge for travel.

Can pets and children be at home?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.

Will there be a smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.

Do you charge for travel?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Can a coloured bath be made white?

Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

DIY kit or professional repair?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

How we price coloured bath resurfacing

Resurfacing from £350. We don’t charge extra for travel to Aberlour. The price depends on:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The material
  • How many areas need work

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.

Getting a price from pictures

You can typically get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • The material, if you know it
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

Upload a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your AB38 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

For landlords and businesses

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

The process

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a day or two, depending on how many items. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
  5. Each item is left to cure, usually ready the next day.

How to prepare

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

How to get a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole suite, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Advice

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a coloured suite means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white turns it white without taking anything out. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
