Coloured bath resurfacing in Abington, done in place
A full suite is usually done in one to two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there is no plumbing or tiling. We work on whole bathroom suites, coloured basins and coloured shower trays, and people most frequently call us about a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Abington and across South Lanarkshire. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How many items we do on one visit
- The material
- The size and number of damaged areas
Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Send photos for a quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Any details about the material
- Something in shot to show the size
Email us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your ML12 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
When a repair is not the answer
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:
- 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’ll give you a straight answer.
Materials we repair
- Coloured basins
- Coloured shower trays
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Whole bathroom suites
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a coloured suite means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white turns it white without taking anything out. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Why Abington clients choose us
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- No need to remove anything
- Fixed prices from your pictures
See our full price list and resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
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, then guarantee it for a year.

- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- Once cured, normally by the next day, the suite is ready.

Advice
Landlord and trade work in Abington
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Questions from Abington
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
What information do you need?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Do the materials smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
Do you cover Abington?
We do. We send a technician to Abington for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
