- A suite that does not match a new bathroom
- Faded or patchy colour
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
What your quote should include
- Whether they match the colour on site

- What protection goes down before work starts
- Who will actually do the work
How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Burnside of Duntrune
A full suite is typically done in one to two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. We regularly repair coloured basins, whole bathroom suites and avocado, pampas and pink baths, and common reasons people contact us are faded or patchy colour and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

What coloured bath resurfacing costs
Prices start from £350. We price every job individually, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How much damage there is
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How hard the colour is to match
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.
How to get a fixed quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:
- Where you are, by postcode
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- One picture of the whole suite
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
If you’re in Burnside of Duntrune and want a price, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
What happens on the day
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we are there. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a day or two, depending on how many items. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- Each item is left to cure, usually ready the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
Ask for a price
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Common questions in Burnside of Duntrune
Is there a call-out fee?
There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Will there be a smell?
Expect a mild smell while we are working, which fades afterwards.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

What else we do in Burnside of Duntrune
Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure 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.
Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white turns it white with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.
