Coloured Bath Resurfacing in Clackmannanshire

Coloured bath resurfacing across Clackmannanshire: what to expect

A full suite is normally done in one to two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. Our technicians work on whole bathroom suites, coloured basins and coloured shower trays, and the jobs we see most are a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and faded or patchy colour.

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a day or two, depending on how many items, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
  3. The surface is prepared and primed.
  4. The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
  5. We leave everything to cure, usually until the following day.

What it costs in Clackmannanshire

How we price coloured bath resurfacing

Resurfacing from £350. You will know the full cost before booking. We look at:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The material and finish

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

How to get a fixed quote

You can typically get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A picture taken from further back
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or ring us. We will say immediately if a repair is the right fix.

Honest limits

Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. We can’t fix:

  • 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)

Repairing versus replacing

Replacing a coloured suite involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing turns it white with everything left in place.

Questions to ask before booking

  • Who turns up on the day
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • How long it needs to cure
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price

Should I try a DIY kit first?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Common problems we fix in Clackmannanshire

Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. The problem is typically the colour, not the bath.

The most common problems we are called about are:

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

Common questions in Clackmannanshire

Can landlords book you?

Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

What areas do you cover?

Across the UK, so Clackmannanshire is covered. Prices do not change with location.

What happens if you find more damage?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

How do I book?

Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Is there any odour?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.
