How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Ferniehill
A full suite is generally done in one to two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. If you are dealing with faded or patchy colour and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, we can help, whatever the material.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

FAQs for Ferniehill
How do I get a price for coloured bath resurfacing in Ferniehill?
Resurfacing from £350. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before you book.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Can pets and children be at home?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Do the materials smell?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working, which fades afterwards.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole suite and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
What coloured bath resurfacing costs
Resurfacing from £350. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The colour and finish to match
- The material
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Ferniehill. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Send pictures for a quote
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- The material, if you know it
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A wider photo showing the whole suite
- Something in shot to show the size
Upload pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you are in Ferniehill, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
Work for landlords and builders
For anyone letting property in or around Ferniehill, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we will price them together.
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
How the visit works
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job generally takes a day or two, depending on how many items. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- The room is protected and ventilated.
- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- The surface is prepared and primed.
- The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
- Each item is left to cure, normally ready the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Clear the area around the damage
Ask for a price
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. 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.
When a repair isn’t the answer
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)
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
