DIY repairs versus a professional job
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
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.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. These are the things that affect it:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How much damage there is
- How hard the colour is to match
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Quotes from your photos
You can take the photos on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Where you are, by postcode
- A photo taken from further back
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
For a price in Balliveolan, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Signs you need coloured bath resurfacing in Balliveolan
Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and many are still sound. It’s generally the colour that dates them, not the condition.
Contact us if you’ve noticed any of these:
- A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- Faded or patchy colour
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite

How it works
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take a day or two, depending on how many items, including clearing up.
- The room is protected and ventilated.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
- Once cured, normally by the next day, the suite is ready.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Clear the area around the damage
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
Getting a price
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or call us. We’ll say immediately whether it can be repaired.

Balliveolan questions
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Do you charge for travel?
There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
Do you come to Balliveolan?
We do. Repair technicians travel to Balliveolan from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Can a coloured bath be made white?
Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
What about the toilet?
Talk to us first. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we will advise honestly before quoting.
Work for landlords and builders
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

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