How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Ballachulish

A full suite is typically done in one to two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. Whether it’s a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and faded or patchy colour, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.

Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Your questions about coloured bath resurfacing in Ballachulish

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.

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.

Can a coloured bath be made white?

Yes. We resurface it in white with it left in place.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Will there be a smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.

Is my repair covered?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

How the visit works

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take one to two days for a full suite, tidy-up included.

  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. Once cured, normally by the following day, the suite is ready.

Before we arrive

  • Open a window if you can
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Clear the area around the damage

How to get a price

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

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

  • Aftercare advice
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • Who will actually do the work

Our hiring checklist

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a coloured suite means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white changes the colour without taking anything out. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Why book with us

  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish

See our pricing or guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.

What a repair can’t fix

A repair is not right for every job, including:

  • 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 will give you a straight answer.

What we work on

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

Can I fix it myself?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

What coloured bath resurfacing costs

Prices start from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Ballachulish. The price reflects:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Ballachulish. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Send pictures for a quote

Phone photos are fine. Make sure they show:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole suite, we can give you a fixed quote without visiting.
