Coloured bath resurfacing in Craigour without replacing anything
Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there is no plumbing or tiling. A full suite is typically done in one to two days. Common call-outs are for faded or patchy colour and selling or letting a home with an old suite, across coloured basins, avocado, pampas and pink baths and coloured shower trays.
Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

How it works
You do not need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. It typically takes one to two days for a full suite, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- The surface is prepared and primed.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- We leave everything to cure, typically until the following day.
How to prepare
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
Getting a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole suite, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a coloured suite means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white turns it white with everything left in place. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

For landlords and businesses
Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
What coloured bath resurfacing costs
Prices start from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The material and finish
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Send photos for a quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A picture taken from further back
- Natural light rather than flash
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
If you are in Craigour and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Common questions in Craigour
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Can you do the toilet too?
Talk to us first. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we’ll advise honestly before quoting.
Is there any odour?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.
Can you price it without visiting?
Typically, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Are there extra charges for Craigour?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Do you cover the whole of Edinburgh?
We cover the whole UK, including Craigour and the rest of Edinburgh. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.
