How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Falkirk
We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. A full suite is normally done in one to two days. We regularly repair coloured shower trays, coloured basins and whole bathroom suites, and common reasons people get in touch are selling or letting a home with an old suite and faded or patchy colour.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.
Work for landlords and builders
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Falkirk and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
What affects the price in Falkirk
Prices start from £350. There’s no charge for travel to Falkirk. The price comes down to:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The material
- How many areas need work
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.
Getting a price from pictures
Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A picture taken from further back
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Where you are, by postcode
Email us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you are in Falkirk, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Do you need coloured bath resurfacing in Falkirk?
Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and many are still sound. It’s typically the colour that dates them, not the condition.
Most people get in touch after spotting something like this:
- Faded or patchy colour
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
Comparing quotes
- How the room is protected while they work
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- What happens if they find more damage
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
When a repair is not the answer
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’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 pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Materials we repair
- Coloured basins
- Whole bathroom suites
- Coloured shower trays
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
DIY kit or professional repair?
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, and the work is guaranteed.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a coloured suite involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing changes the colour without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Why us?
- One visit for most repairs
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
- We leave the room as we found it

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
How do I get a price for coloured bath resurfacing in Falkirk?
Resurfacing from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
