- 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 pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Coloured bath resurfacing in Aywick, done in place
Most suites take one or two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. We are often asked to fix a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and faded or patchy colour, in coloured shower trays, whole bathroom suites and coloured basins.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll come back. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

What we are called out for in Aywick
Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and many are still sound. The problem is generally the colour, not the bath.
People generally call us after spotting something like this:
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- Faded or patchy colour
- A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
Questions to ask before you book
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- Who turns up on the day
- Whether the price covers travel
What affects the price in Aywick
Prices start from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- Access to the area
- How much damage there is
- How hard the colour is to match
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed price
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:
- A photo taken from further back
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- What it’s made of, if you know
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.
Can I fix it myself?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
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.
Questions from Aywick
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Typically, yes. The old repair comes out first.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
What happens after I send pictures?
You’ll get a fixed quote back, plus dates. You are under no obligation.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Work for landlords and builders
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

Aywick and the surrounding area
Aywick is in the Shetland Islands. We work in every kind of home, from flats and terraces to detached houses and new builds, as well as offices, shops and holiday lets. Aywick is one of 63 places in the Shetland Islands where we work.
Jobs in ZE2 are booked in the same way as anywhere else. We also travel to Mid Yell (3 miles north), Camb (4 miles north), Burravoe (4 miles south), Houbie (6 miles north-east) and Mossbank (9 miles south-west). Remote and island addresses take a little more planning, so it’s best to call first.

What happens on the day
There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take a day or two, depending on how many items.
- The room is protected and ventilated.
- We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
- The surface is prepared and primed.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- Each item is left to cure, usually ready the next day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
How to get a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.
Related advice
Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing changes the colour with everything left in place. Prices start from £350. We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Why us?
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- Work done at your home or business
- Same prices wherever you are
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
