Coloured bath resurfacing in Auchencairn, done in place
A full suite is generally done in one to two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. We work on coloured shower trays, avocado, pampas and pink baths and coloured basins, and common reasons people get in touch are faded or patchy colour and selling or letting a home with an old suite.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing turns it white with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Why book with us
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- Fixed prices from your pictures

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. There is no area surcharge for Auchencairn. The price reflects:
- What kind of damage it is
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Unusual colours or finishes
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Auchencairn. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Send pictures for a quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- A photo taken from further back
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or call us. We will say straight away if a repair is the right fix.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
Honest limits
Some jobs are not right for a repair, including:
- 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.
Materials we work on in Auchencairn

Auchencairn: your questions answered
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
Can you do the toilet too?
Ask us. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we’ll advise honestly before quoting.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Is there any odour?
There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.

What we do, step by step
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a day or two, depending on how many items. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will 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.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- Once cured, normally by the day after, the suite is ready.
Preparing for the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
Getting a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the suite, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
