Coloured bath resurfacing in Cairnryan, done in place
Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. A full suite is generally done in one to two days. Common call-outs are for a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and faded or patchy colour, across coloured basins, avocado, pampas and pink baths and coloured shower trays.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re covered after the visit. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Signs you need coloured bath resurfacing in Cairnryan
Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. It’s generally the colour that dates them, not the condition.
If you can see any of these, send us a picture:
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- Faded or patchy colour
- A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom

- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- Aftercare advice
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. There’s no charge for travel to Cairnryan. The price comes down to:
- What the surface is made of
- How much damage there is
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How hard the colour is to match
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Send pictures for a quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- Any details about the material
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A photo taken from further back
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
Most clients in Cairnryan get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

The process
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job usually takes a day or two, depending on how many items. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.
- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- We leave everything to cure, generally until the next day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Make sure the area is dry
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

DIY repairs versus a professional job
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
Work for landlords and builders
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Cairnryan use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
When a repair is not the answer
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- 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)
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
Materials we repair
- Coloured basins
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths

Repair or replace in Cairnryan?
Replacing a coloured suite means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing changes the colour with everything left in place. Prices start from £350. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Cairnryan questions
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Can a coloured bath be made white?
Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.
Will the price change on the day?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
Do you come to Cairnryan?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Cairnryan from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Can you do the toilet too?
Ask us. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we will tell you what will last.
