Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Davidson's Mains
A full suite is normally done in one to two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. We regularly repair whole bathroom suites, coloured basins and avocado, pampas and pink baths, and the jobs we see most are selling or letting a home with an old suite and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom.
You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Do you need coloured bath resurfacing in Davidson's Mains?
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and many are still sound. It’s typically the colour that dates them, not the condition.
Send us a picture if you notice any of these:
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
- Faded or patchy colour
What your quote should include
- What prep work is covered
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
Should you replace it?
Replacing a coloured suite means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing changes the colour with everything left in place. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.
Why us?
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
- We leave the room as we found it
- No extra charge for your area

When we would advise against a repair
In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not 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.
What we work on
- Whole bathroom suites
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths

Other services in Davidson's Mains
Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
Your questions about coloured bath resurfacing in Davidson's Mains
Do you come to Davidson's Mains?
Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Davidson's Mains from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
What about the toilet?
Talk to us first. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we will tell you what will last.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.
What coloured bath resurfacing costs
Resurfacing from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Davidson's Mains. What changes the price is:
- How hard the colour is to match
- How many areas need work
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
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. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Send pictures for a quote
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Where you are, by postcode
- One picture of the entire suite
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There’s no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.
