Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.

How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Athelstaneford
Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. A full suite is typically done in one to two days. Our technicians work on coloured basins, coloured shower trays and avocado, pampas and pink baths, and the jobs we see most are selling or letting a home with an old suite and faded or patchy colour.
Every job is backed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Should you replace it?
Replacing a coloured suite involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing changes the colour without taking anything out. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

How we price coloured bath resurfacing
Resurfacing from £350. There’s no charge for travel to Athelstaneford. The price comes down to:
- The type of damage
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The colour and finish to match
- Doing more than one item at once
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking.
Quotes from your pictures
Two or three clear photos are generally enough. Try to include:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Where you are, by postcode
- Any details about the material
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say immediately if a repair is the right fix.
When we would advise against a repair
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can 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)
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
What we work on
- Coloured shower trays
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Whole bathroom suites
- Coloured basins
DIY kit or professional repair?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is 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.
For landlords and businesses
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Athelstaneford use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
What happens on the day
We agree an arrival time beforehand. On site, it takes one to two days for a full suite for most jobs. The room is left tidy.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- Each item is left to cure, usually ready the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Make sure the area is dry
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
