How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Bents
Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. A full suite is typically done in one to two days. We’re often asked to fix a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and faded or patchy colour, on coloured basins, whole bathroom suites and avocado, pampas and pink baths.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Bents and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

What else we do in Bents
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a coloured suite involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white turns it white with everything left in place. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.
What you get with us
- Work done at your home or business
- Generally one visit, start to finish
- We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- Free fixed quotes from pictures

What we’re called out for in Bents
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and many are still sound. It’s generally the colour that dates them, not the condition.
Most people get in touch after spotting one of these:
- Faded or patchy colour
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- A suite that does not match a new bathroom
What your quote should include
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- Whether the price covers travel
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- What protection goes down before work starts
How it works
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we are there. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes one to two days for a full suite. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- The room is protected and ventilated.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
- We leave everything to cure, usually until the day after.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
Ask for a price
To get a price, send a couple of photos using our quote form or ring us. We will say straight away whether it can be repaired.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
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.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
Work for landlords and builders
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Honest limits
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- 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’ll say what we think.
Materials we work on in Bents
- Coloured basins
- Whole bathroom suites
- Coloured shower trays
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
Common questions in Bents
Which areas do you work in?
All of West Lothian, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can you do the toilet too?
Talk to us first. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we’ll tell you what will last.
How do I get a price for coloured bath resurfacing in Bents?
Prices start from £350. Every job gets a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item and your postcode.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.
What happens if you find more damage?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
How we price coloured bath resurfacing
Resurfacing from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Bents. What changes the price is:
- The type of damage
- What the surface is made of
- How many areas need work
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Send pictures for a quote
You can take the photos on your phone. Make sure they show:
- The material, if you know it
- One picture of the entire suite
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Send us pictures of the damage and one of the entire item, with your EH47 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
