About our coloured bath resurfacing in Balephuil
A full suite is normally done in one to two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. Whether it’s a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, we can normally put it right.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Can I fix it myself?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a coloured suite involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white changes the colour with everything left in place. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Work for landlords and builders
If you manage property in Balephuil, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we will price them together.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The material and finish
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Doing more than one item at once
Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Getting a price from photos
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- One picture of the entire suite
- The material, if you know it
- Details of any past repairs
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
What we are called out for in Balephuil
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. It’s generally the colour that dates them, not the condition.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- Faded or patchy colour
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- A suite that does not match a new bathroom
Before you book anyone
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- How long it needs to cure
- If travel is included in the price
- How to care for the finish
How it works
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the work takes one to two days for a full suite. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.
- The room is protected and ventilated.
- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
- Each item is left to cure, generally ready the day after.
Before we arrive
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Have a window or extractor fan available

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Balephuil questions
Will the price change on the day?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Do you cover Balephuil?
We do. Repair technicians travel to Balephuil from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
What areas do you cover?
We cover the entire UK, including Balephuil and the rest of Argyll and Bute. Just include your postcode and we’ll offer you dates.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Can you do the toilet too?
Talk to us first. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we will advise honestly before quoting.
