Repair or replace in Balivanich?
Replacing a coloured suite means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white changes the colour with everything left in place. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Why Balivanich clients choose us
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- Generally one visit, start to finish

Questions from Balivanich
Can you turn my avocado bath white?
Yes. We resurface it in white with it left in place.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
What happens next?
We come back with a fixed quote. There is no obligation to book.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.
How do I book?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
What we do, step by step
Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for a day or two, depending on how many items from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to look after it.
- The room is protected and ventilated.
- We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
- We leave everything to cure, typically until the next day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
Getting a price
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

What coloured bath resurfacing costs
Resurfacing from £350. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. What matters most is:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The material and finish
- The colour and finish to match
- The type of damage
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Balivanich. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Getting a price from pictures
You can usually get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- One picture of the entire suite
- Natural light rather than flash
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and no obligation.
When we’d advise against a repair
In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t 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)
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
What we work on
- Coloured shower trays
- Coloured basins
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Whole bathroom suites

DIY repairs versus a professional job
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. 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.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. 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.
