Coloured suite to white in Burnmouth, Scottish Borders
Local coloured bath resurfacing for Burnmouth: photo quotes, tidy work and a year’s guarantee.
- Resurfacing from £350
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
DIY repairs versus a professional job
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 the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
Coloured bath resurfacing in Burnmouth without replacing anything
Most suites take one or two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. Our repair technicians work on coloured shower trays, whole bathroom suites and coloured basins, and people most often call us about selling or letting a home with an old suite and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll come back. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

What else we do in Burnmouth
Repairing versus replacing in Burnmouth
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing changes the colour with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Burnmouth. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Why us?
- Typically one visit, start to finish
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
See our pricing and guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.
Honest limits
We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- 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 before booking.
What we work on
- Whole bathroom suites
- Coloured basins
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Coloured shower trays

Burnmouth questions
Can a coloured bath be made white?
Yes. We resurface it in white with it left in place.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Is there a call-out fee?
There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Is there a guarantee?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
How do I book?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Burnmouth
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Burnmouth use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in the Scottish Borders and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
What coloured bath resurfacing costs
Prices start from £350. There is no charge for travel to Burnmouth. The price comes down to:
- What kind of damage it is
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The material
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
Set against the cost of replacement, 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.
Getting a price from photos
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A photo taken from further back
- Something in shot to show the size
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole suite, we can give you a fixed quote the same day in most cases.
