What happens on the day
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to a day or two, depending on how many items, including clearing up.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
- We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- Once cured, normally by the following day, the suite is ready.
Before we arrive
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Have a window or extractor fan available
How to get a price

About our coloured bath resurfacing in Ashkirk
Most suites take one or two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Whether it’s a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and selling or letting a home with an old suite, we can usually put it right.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Questions from Ashkirk
Do you cover Ashkirk?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Ashkirk for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
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 you quote from pictures?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
Which areas do you work in?
We work UK-wide, and that includes Ashkirk. Prices do not change with location.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a coloured suite involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white changes the colour with everything left in place. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Honest limits
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair 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)
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.
What we work on
- Coloured shower trays
- Whole bathroom suites
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Coloured basins
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
What we are called out for in Ashkirk
Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. It’s generally the colour that dates them, not the condition.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Faded or patchy colour
- A suite that does not match a new bathroom
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
Questions to ask before booking
- What protection goes down before work starts
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- Whether they match the colour on site
- How changes to the job are handled
What coloured bath resurfacing costs
Resurfacing from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How much damage there is
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Send pictures for a quote
Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Natural light rather than flash
- Details of any past repairs
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job.
For landlords and businesses
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Ashkirk as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.
