Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Contin
We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. A full suite is usually done in one to two days. Our technicians work on coloured shower trays, coloured basins and avocado, pampas and pink baths, and people most often call us about a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. There is no charge for travel to Contin. The price depends on:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- What the surface is made of
- How many areas need work
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Quotes from your photos
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- Any details about the material
- A wider photo showing the whole suite
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.
Landlord and trade work in Contin
Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.
How it works
Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes one to two days for a full suite, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- Each item is left to cure, normally ready the day after.

Contin: your questions answered
Can you turn my avocado bath white?
Yes. We resurface it in white with it left in place.
Is there any odour?
Expect a mild smell while we are working.
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.

All of Highland, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
How soon can you come?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Do you come to Contin?
We do. We send a technician to Contin for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
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.
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 frequently lifts.
