Landlord and trade work in Airbles
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in North Lanarkshire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
About our coloured bath resurfacing in Airbles
A full suite is typically done in one to two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there is no plumbing or tiling. We regularly repair whole bathroom suites, avocado, pampas and pink baths and coloured basins, and common reasons people get in touch are faded or patchy colour and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we will come back. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Questions from Airbles
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Are there extra charges for Airbles?
We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Can pets and children be at home?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
What happens if you find more damage?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
How do I book?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
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, and the work is guaranteed.
Repairing versus replacing in Airbles
Replacing a coloured suite involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing turns it white without taking anything out. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.
Why us?
- No extra charge for your area
- We leave the room as we found it

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
- Faded or patchy colour

Advice
When a repair is not the answer
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- 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.

What affects the price in Airbles

- Unusual colours or finishes
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
