Coloured bath resurfacing in Auchinraith

Common questions in Auchinraith

Is the work guaranteed?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

When can you do it?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Do you charge for travel?

We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Can you repair several things at once?

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

Do you work in Auchinraith?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Auchinraith. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Are you accredited?

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

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Auchinraith

A full suite is typically done in one to two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. We work on coloured basins, whole bathroom suites and coloured shower trays, and the jobs we see most are faded or patchy colour and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will come back. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

What coloured bath resurfacing costs

Resurfacing from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:

  • Access to the area
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • What kind of damage it is

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Send pictures for a quote

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • The material, if you know it
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

To get a price, send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

When a repair is not the answer

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t 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)

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

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.

The process

On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take one to two days for a full suite. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
  5. Once cured, normally by the day after, the suite is ready.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Ask for a price

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire suite, we can price the job.

Advice

Work for landlords and builders

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Auchinraith as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a coloured suite involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white turns it white with everything left in place. Prices start from £350. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Why book with us

  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • No need to remove anything
