- A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom

Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Culbokie
Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. We regularly repair coloured shower trays, whole bathroom suites and coloured basins, and common reasons people get in touch are a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and selling or letting a home with an old suite.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Culbokie as everywhere else we work. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Landlord and trade work in Culbokie
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
If you manage property in Culbokie, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we’ll price them together.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- How much damage there is
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- What the surface is made of
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed quote
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:
- Natural light rather than flash
- A wider photo showing the whole suite
- Details of any past repairs
- What it’s made of, if you know
Upload photos of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Culbokie, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
Common questions in Culbokie
What happens if you find more damage?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
Is there a guarantee?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
You will get a fixed quote back, generally with dates to choose from. You’re under no obligation.
Can you quote from photos?
Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Do you cover the entire of Highland?
Across the UK. Prices don’t change with location.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
Can you turn my avocado bath white?
Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners in Culbokie.
How the visit works
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we are there. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes one to two days for a full suite. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- The surface is prepared and primed.
- We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
- Once cured, normally by the following day, the suite is ready.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
Getting a price
We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
