- 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 pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Cardross
A full suite is usually done in one to two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. Common call-outs are for faded or patchy colour and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, on whole bathroom suites, avocado, pampas and pink baths and coloured basins.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Cardross and across West Dunbartonshire. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Your questions about coloured bath resurfacing in Cardross
Can you do the toilet too?
Talk to us first. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we will advise honestly before quoting.
What information do you need?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Do you come to Cardross?
We do. We send a technician to Cardross for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How hard the colour is to match
- How easy the damage is to reach
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Quotes from your photos
Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- The material, if you know it
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A wider photo showing the whole suite
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
To get a price, send a couple of photos using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

What else we do in Cardross
Can I fix it myself?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
How it works
From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes one to two days for a full suite, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- 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 next day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.
