Coloured bath resurfacing in Auchenharvie 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. If you are dealing with a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and selling or letting a home with an old suite, we can normally put it right.

Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Repair or replace in Auchenharvie?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing turns it white with everything left in place. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why us?

  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Colour-matched on site
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing

Take a look at our pricing and resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.

What coloured bath resurfacing costs

Prices start from £350. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The material

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Send pictures for a quote

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

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

For a price in Auchenharvie, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

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, and the work is guaranteed.

Do you need coloured bath resurfacing in Auchenharvie?

Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and many are still sound. The problem is normally the colour, not the bath.

If you can see any of these, send us a picture:

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

Before booking anyone

  • When it can be used again
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long

Our hiring checklist

Auchenharvie: your questions answered

Do you work in Auchenharvie?

We do. We send a technician to Auchenharvie for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

What about the toilet?

Talk to us first. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we will tell you what will last.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you will get one combined price.

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.

How do I book?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole suite and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send photos.

Do you cover the entire of North Ayrshire?

All of North Ayrshire, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Work for landlords and builders

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

If you manage property in Auchenharvie, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.

When we would advise against a repair

In fairness, some problems need a different 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 basins
  • Whole bathroom suites
  • Coloured shower trays
  • Avocado, pampas and pink baths

What happens on the day

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a day or two, depending on how many items. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
  5. Each item is left to cure, typically ready the next day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Getting a price

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.
