How coloured bath resurfacing works in the Orkney Islands

We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. A full suite is usually done in one to two days. We’re frequently asked to fix a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, on avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured shower trays and whole bathroom suites.

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, which usually takes a day or two, depending on how many items. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

We protect the room and ventilate it.
Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
Once cured, normally by the following day, the suite is ready.

Pricing in the Orkney Islands

Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Landmarks near Kirkwall

In Kirkwall, that means homes near Orkney Library and Archive, Kirkwall Grammar School and Paterson Church. Nearby you will also find Balfour Hospital (0.5 miles south-west) and Bishop's Palace (within half a mile south-west). The countryside around Kirkwall includes Gallow Ha' and Loomi Shun.

Landlord and trade work in the Orkney Islands

For anyone letting property in or around the Orkney Islands, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we will price them together.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

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.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

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

When a repair is not the answer

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:

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)

DIY repairs versus a professional job

We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Should you replace it?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing changes the colour without taking anything out.
