Trusted coloured bath resurfacing in Belhaven

How the visit works

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to a day or two, depending on how many items, including clearing up.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
  3. The surface is prepared and primed.
  4. We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
  5. We leave everything to cure, usually until the next day.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

How to get a price

We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

Coloured bath resurfacing in Belhaven without replacing anything

Most suites take one or two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there is no plumbing or tiling. We regularly repair whole bathroom suites, avocado, pampas and pink baths and coloured shower trays, and people most often call us about selling or letting a home with an old suite and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Prices and what affects them

Resurfacing from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Belhaven. What changes the price is:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How many areas need work
  • The material

Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Getting a price from photos

Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Any details about the material
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the suite, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Landlord and trade work in Belhaven

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will handle the rest.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Belhaven as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.

FAQs for Belhaven

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Can you quote from photos?

Nearly always. If pictures don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

What happens next?

We come back with a fixed price. There is no obligation to book.

Can you turn my avocado bath white?

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

Do you cover Belhaven?

We do. Technicians travel to Belhaven from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

How much does coloured bath resurfacing cost in Belhaven?

Prices start from £350. Every job gets a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your EH42 postcode.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.

What a repair can’t fix

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • 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 photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Do you need coloured bath resurfacing in Belhaven?

Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and many are still sound. It’s typically 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
  • Selling or letting a home with an old suite
  • A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
  • Faded or patchy colour

10 questions to ask before booking

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Repair or replace in Belhaven?

Replacing a coloured suite involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing changes the colour without taking anything out. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
