Common questions in Duns
What about the toilet?
Talk to us first. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we will advise honestly before quoting.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.
Are there extra charges for Duns?
We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across the Scottish Borders.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.
Coloured bath resurfacing in Duns without replacing anything
Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there is no plumbing or tiling. A full suite is normally done in one to two days. Our repair technicians work on coloured basins, whole bathroom suites and coloured shower trays, and common reasons people contact us are a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and selling or letting a home with an old suite.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will come back. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
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, it’s worth having it done properly.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The colour and finish to match
- What kind of damage it is
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Send pictures for a quote
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- One picture of the entire suite
- Natural light rather than flash
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.
How it works
Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Allow a day or two, depending on how many items. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- 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 on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
- We leave everything to cure, generally until the next day.
Before we arrive
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
Getting a price
Email us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your TD11 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Look out for these signs:
- Faded or patchy colour

- A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white

Repairing versus replacing in Duns
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white turns it white without taking anything out. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- One visit for most repairs

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.
