Coloured bath resurfacing in Collieston

How the visit works

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take one to two days for a full suite, tidy-up included.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
  3. The surface is prepared and primed.
  4. The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
  5. We leave everything to cure, usually until the day after.

How to prepare

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Getting a price

Most clients in Collieston get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Advice

Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Collieston

Most suites take one or two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. We are frequently asked to fix a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and selling or letting a home with an old suite, in coloured basins, whole bathroom suites and coloured shower trays.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we will sort it. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Landlord and trade work in Collieston

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

What coloured bath resurfacing costs

Resurfacing from £350. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The material
  • How many areas need work

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Send photos for a quote

Two or three clear photos are typically enough. Try to include:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A photo taken from further back
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Send us a photo of the damage and one of the whole item, with your AB41 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Honest limits

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • 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 will tell you honestly before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, 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.
