How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in An t-Àth Leathann
A full suite is typically done in one to two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. Whether it’s selling or letting a home with an old suite and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, we can help, on avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured shower trays and whole bathroom suites alike.
Every job is backed for twelve months in An t-Àth Leathann and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Common questions in An t-Àth Leathann
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
Will the price change on the day?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
What happens next?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
DIY kit or professional repair?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
What happens on the day
We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take a day or two, depending on how many items, and we leave the room as we found it.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
- We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- We leave everything to cure, usually until the day after.
How to prepare
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
