Coloured bath resurfacing in Belses, done in place
Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. We work on coloured basins, avocado, pampas and pink baths and whole bathroom suites, and the jobs we see most are faded or patchy colour and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white.
All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in the Scottish Borders. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How hard the colour is to match
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The size and number of damaged areas
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.
Send photos for a quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Where you are, by postcode
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A photo taken from further back
Upload photos of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your TD8 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

When a repair is not the answer
In fairness, some problems need a different 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 pictures and we will say what we think.

What else we do in Belses
Landlord and trade work in Belses
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Belses use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
Belses questions
Can you turn my avocado bath white?
Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Can you do the toilet too?
Ask us. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we will advise honestly before quoting.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
How do I get a price for coloured bath resurfacing in Belses?
Resurfacing from £350. We give a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Is there a guarantee?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Signs you need coloured bath resurfacing in Belses
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.
You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
- Faded or patchy colour
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
What your quote should include
- Whether they match the colour on site
- What preparation is included
- How your room will be protected
- What aftercare is recommended
The process
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you’re not left guessing. Once we’re there, the work takes one to two days for a full suite. The room is left tidy and you will know when it can be used.
- The room is protected and ventilated.
- We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
- Once cured, normally by the following day, the suite is ready.
Preparing for the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Let us know about parking or access
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
Ask for a price
We price from pictures 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 you’ll get a fixed figure back.
Related advice
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a coloured suite means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white turns it white without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Why us?
