How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Alloa

We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. A full suite is generally done in one to two days. Common call-outs are for selling or letting a home with an old suite and faded or patchy colour, across whole bathroom suites, avocado, pampas and pink baths and coloured basins.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

DIY kit or professional repair?

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, then guarantee it for a year.

When we would advise against a repair

It helps to know what we cannot 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 photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Materials we repair

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

How we price coloured bath resurfacing

Resurfacing from £350. There’s no charge for travel to Alloa. The price comes down to:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • What kind of damage it is
  • The material and finish
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

How to get a fixed quote

Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

Send us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your FK10 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

How the visit works

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a day or two, depending on how many items, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
  3. We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
  5. Once cured, normally by the day after, the suite is ready.

Before we arrive

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Ask for a price

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire suite, we can price the job the same day in most cases.
