Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Inverclyde

We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. We’re often asked to fix selling or letting a home with an old suite and faded or patchy colour, on coloured shower trays, whole bathroom suites and coloured basins.

On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job generally takes a day or two, depending on how many items. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
  3. We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
  5. Once cured, normally by the next day, the suite is ready.

What it costs in Inverclyde

Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Landmarks near Greenock

How the damage happens

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

Signs it’s time to call us include:

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

For landlords and businesses

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Inverclyde use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

What coloured bath resurfacing costs

Resurfacing from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The material
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Send pictures for a quote

Two or three clear photos are typically enough. Try to include:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Most customers in Inverclyde get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Repairing versus replacing

Replacing a coloured suite involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing turns it white without taking anything out.

What your quote should include

  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • How your room will be protected
  • How soon you can use it again

When we’d advise against a repair

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not 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)

Inverclyde questions

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.

What do you need from me?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire suite and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Can pets and children be at home?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.

Will you leave a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Normally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.
