How it works
We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes one to two days for a full suite, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- The room is protected and ventilated.
- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
- Once cured, normally by the day after, the suite is ready.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Let us know about parking or access

Can I fix it myself?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
Honest limits
Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. We can’t fix:
- 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)
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Coloured shower trays
- Whole bathroom suites
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Coloured basins
Do you need coloured bath resurfacing in Cumbernauld?
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and many are still sound. The problem is normally the colour, not the bath.
You may need us if you’ve spotted:
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- A suite that does not match a new bathroom
- Faded or patchy colour

Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The material and finish
- How many items we do on one visit
Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Quotes from your photos
You can take the pictures on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Make sure they show:
- Any details about the material
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Natural light rather than flash
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit

Common questions in Cumbernauld
What about the toilet?
Ask us. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we will advise honestly before quoting.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Can a coloured bath be made white?
Yes. We resurface it in white with it left in place.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.
Which areas do you work in?
Everywhere in the UK, Cumbernauld included. Travel is included in the price.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Is there a call-out fee?
We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.
