Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Colgrain
A full suite is usually done in one to two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there is no plumbing or tiling. We regularly repair avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured basins and coloured shower trays, and people most frequently call us about a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom.
You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Colgrain questions
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
How soon can you come?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Can pets and children be at home?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Will there be a smell?
There can be some smell while we work. It clears as the materials cure.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. If pictures don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.

What we’re called out for in Colgrain
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. The problem is typically the colour, not the bath.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- Faded or patchy colour
- A suite that does not match a new bathroom
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- When it can be used again
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
How we price coloured bath resurfacing
Resurfacing from £350. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. The main factors are:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How hard the colour is to match
- The type of damage
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
Getting a price from photos
Phone pictures are fine. Ensure they show:
- Something in shot to show the size
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- The material, if you know it
Send us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you are in Colgrain, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Every address in G82 and G84 is covered, from the main roads to the quietest streets.

Landmarks near Colgrain
Locally, our jobs take us to homes close to Hermitage Academy and the streets around them. The closest station to Colgrain is Craigendoran station, about 1.2 miles north-west of the centre.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Colgrain
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
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.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
What a repair cannot fix
We won’t take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot 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 photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
What we work on
- Coloured shower trays
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Whole bathroom suites
- Coloured basins
How it works
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take one to two days for a full suite. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.
- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- 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
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
Ask for a price
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or ring us. We’ll say immediately whether it can be repaired.

Should you replace it?
Replacing a coloured suite means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing turns it white with everything left in place. Prices start from £350. A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.
What you get with us
- Free fixed quotes from pictures
- One visit for most repairs
