Coloured bath resurfacing in Fernhill without replacing anything

We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. A full suite is usually done in one to two days. Whether it’s selling or letting a home with an old suite and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, we can generally put it right.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once we’ve gone. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Common questions in Fernhill

Can you do the toilet too?

Talk to us first. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we will tell you what will last.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

What happens after I send pictures?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.

Which areas do you work in?

We cover the entire UK, including Fernhill and the rest of South Lanarkshire. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll confirm dates.

How soon can you come?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Do you come to Fernhill?

We do. Repair technicians travel to Fernhill from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white turns it white without taking anything out. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: 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.

Why us?

  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • One price list for the whole UK
  • Generally one visit, start to finish
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year

The process

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a day or two, depending on how many items. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
  3. We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
  5. Each item is left to cure, usually ready the next day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Getting a price

To get a price, send a couple of pictures through our quote form or call us. We’ll say straight away whether it can be repaired.

What we cannot put right

We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • 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 will say what we think.

What we work on

  • Whole bathroom suites
  • Coloured basins
  • Avocado, pampas and pink baths
  • Coloured shower trays

What coloured bath resurfacing costs

Resurfacing from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Fernhill. The price reflects:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The material and finish

We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Send pictures for a quote

You can take the pictures on your phone. Just make sure we can see:

  • The material, if you know it
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A picture taken from further back

For a price in Fernhill, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Fernhill

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Fernhill as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

Do you need coloured bath resurfacing in Fernhill?

Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. It’s normally the colour that dates them, not the condition.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • Faded or patchy colour
  • A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
  • Selling or letting a home with an old suite
  • A dated coloured suite you’d like in white

What to look for in a quote

  • How soon you can use it again
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show

Our hiring checklist

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
