Common problems we fix in Footdee
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.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- A suite that does not match a new bathroom
- Faded or patchy colour
Before booking anyone
- Whether they match the colour on site
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
- How your room will be protected
Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Footdee
A full suite is normally done in one to two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Our repair technicians work on avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured shower trays and coloured basins, and the jobs we see most are a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and faded or patchy colour.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Work for landlords and builders
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will arrange it.
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
What we do, step by step
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we’re there. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes one to two days for a full suite. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
- We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
- We leave everything to cure, usually until the next day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
Ask for a price
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say immediately whether it can be repaired.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a coloured suite involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing changes the colour with everything left in place. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.
Why us?
- Fixed prices from your pictures
- Most jobs done in one visit
- We leave the room as we found it
- Colour mixed on the day to match

How we price coloured bath resurfacing
Resurfacing from £350. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- The type of damage
- The material
- How many areas need work
- The colour and finish to match
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Send pictures for a quote
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:
- Any details about the material
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A picture taken from further back
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
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.
Common questions in Footdee
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Are you accredited?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Which areas do you work in?
We cover the whole UK, including Footdee and the rest of Aberdeen. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.
Do you work in Footdee?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Footdee and the rest of Aberdeen. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Do the materials smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.
