About our coloured bath resurfacing in Ferryden

A full suite is normally done in one to two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there is no plumbing or tiling. If you’re dealing with selling or letting a home with an old suite and faded or patchy colour, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.

Every job is backed for twelve months in Ferryden and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

What affects the price in Ferryden

Prices start from £350. There is no area surcharge for Ferryden. The price reflects:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The material and finish
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How easy the damage is to reach

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Quotes from your photos

You can take the photos on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • The material, if you know it

Send us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you are in Ferryden, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

How it works

Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for a day or two, depending on how many items from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
  5. Each item is left to cure, usually ready the next day.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

When a repair isn’t the answer

Before booking, it’s worth knowing 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)

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we repair

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

Should you replace it?

Replacing a coloured suite involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white changes the colour with everything left in place. Prices start from £350. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
