Coloured bath resurfacing in Arinagour

Coloured bath resurfacing in Arinagour without replacing anything

Most suites take one or two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. We work on avocado, pampas and pink baths, whole bathroom suites and coloured basins, and common reasons people contact us are selling or letting a home with an old suite and faded or patchy colour.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Arinagour

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

What we do, step by step

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take one to two days for a full suite, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
  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 next day.

How to prepare

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Ask for a price

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How hard the colour is to match

Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Send pictures for a quote

Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Any details about the material
  • Natural light rather than flash

To get a price, send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We will say right away if a repair is the right fix.

When we would advise against a repair

We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are 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)

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Materials we repair

  • Coloured basins
  • Whole bathroom suites
  • Avocado, pampas and pink baths
  • Coloured shower trays

Can I fix it myself?

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.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Should you replace it?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing changes the colour with everything left in place. Prices start from £350. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

10 questions to ask before you book

Questions from Arinagour

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Arinagour.

How soon can you come?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

What happens if you find more damage?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Do you work in Arinagour?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Arinagour and the rest of Argyll and Bute. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
