Coloured bath resurfacing in Comiston without replacing anything
A full suite is generally done in one to two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. If you are dealing with faded or patchy colour and selling or letting a home with an old suite, we can normally put it right, on coloured shower trays, coloured basins and avocado, pampas and pink baths alike.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Questions from Comiston
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Do you cover the whole of Edinburgh?
The whole UK, including all of Edinburgh. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
How do I get a price for coloured bath resurfacing in Comiston?
Prices start from £350. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
What happens after I send photos?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote with dates.
Should you replace it?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white turns it white with everything left in place. Prices start from £350. A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Why us?
- No need to remove anything
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
- One-year guarantee on every repair
- We leave the room as we found it
See our prices page or bath cost comparison.
Can I fix it myself?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Signs you need coloured bath resurfacing in Comiston
Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. The problem is typically the colour, not the bath.
The most common problems we are called about are:
- Faded or patchy colour
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- A suite that does not match a new bathroom
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
What your quote should include
- What preparation is included
- How long it needs to cure
- How to look after the finish
- What protection goes down before work starts
For landlords and businesses
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
When we would advise against a repair
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:
- 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.
Materials we repair
- Whole bathroom suites
- Coloured shower trays
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Coloured basins
How it works
The work is clean and fairly quiet. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a day or two, depending on how many items. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.
- The room is protected and ventilated.
- We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
- We leave everything to cure, typically until the next day.
Before we arrive
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Point us to the nearest place to park
How to get a price
