Coloured bath resurfacing in Carsphairn without replacing anything

Most suites take one or two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. If you’re dealing with a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and faded or patchy colour, we can help.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll come back. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Carsphairn: your questions answered

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners.

Will you leave a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

What happens if you find more damage?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Are there extra charges for Carsphairn?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

What happens after I send pictures?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.

Can you do the toilet too?

Ask us. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we will tell you what will last.

Do the materials smell?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

Signs you need coloured bath resurfacing in Carsphairn

  • Selling or letting a home with an old suite
  • Faded or patchy colour
  • A suite that does not match a new bathroom

Our hiring checklist

How we price coloured bath resurfacing

Resurfacing from £350. We don’t charge extra for travel to Carsphairn. The price comes down to:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The colour and finish to match
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

Send photos for a quote

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Any details about the material
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

For a price in Carsphairn, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Should you replace it?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white changes the colour without taking anything out. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Why book with us

  • Work done at your home or business
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Colour-matched on site
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish

DIY repairs versus a professional job

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

What we can’t put right

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • 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’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

Materials we work on in Carsphairn

  • Avocado, pampas and pink baths
  • Coloured shower trays
  • Whole bathroom suites
  • Coloured basins

Work for landlords and builders

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.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Carsphairn use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

How it works

Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a day or two, depending on how many items, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
  5. Each item is left to cure, usually ready the next day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
