Our coloured bath resurfacing service in East Lothian

A full suite is generally done in one to two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. Typical jobs include a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and faded or patchy colour, across coloured basins, avocado, pampas and pink baths and whole bathroom suites.

We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. Allow a day or two, depending on how many items.

The room is protected and ventilated.
Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
We leave everything to cure, normally until the next day.

What it costs in East Lothian

Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

How we price coloured bath resurfacing

Prices start from £350. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:

How much damage there is
Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Doing more than one item at once

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book.

Getting a price from pictures

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:

What it’s made of, if you know
Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
Your postcode, so we can check dates
A photo taken from further back

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

Common problems we fix in East Lothian

Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. The problem is usually the colour, not the bath.

Send us a photo if you notice any of these:

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

When a repair is not the answer

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. We cannot 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)

Repair or replace?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing turns it white with everything left in place.

FAQs for East Lothian

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send photos.

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Will there be a smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.

Do you work in East Lothian?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to East Lothian. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across East Lothian.

Can you do the toilet too?

Talk to us first. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we’ll tell you what will last.

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
