Coloured bath resurfacing in Fort William

For landlords and businesses

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Fort William use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Fort William

We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. We’re often asked to fix a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, across whole bathroom suites, coloured shower trays and coloured basins.

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.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a coloured suite involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white changes the colour without taking anything out. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Do you need coloured bath resurfacing in Fort William?

Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and many are still sound. The problem is typically the colour, not the bath.

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

What to look for in a quote

  • What aftercare is recommended
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • Whether they match the colour on site

10 questions to ask before you book

What we cannot put right

In fairness, some problems need a different 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 booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

Can I fix it myself?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

How the visit works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which generally takes one to two days for a full suite. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
  5. We leave everything to cure, usually until the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Open a window if you can

Advice

What coloured bath resurfacing costs

Resurfacing from £350. There’s no charge for travel to Fort William. The price depends on:

  • How much damage there is
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The material and finish

A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

Send pictures for a quote

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A wider photo showing the entire suite
  • Details of any past repairs

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Common questions in Fort William

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.

What happens if you find more damage?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Are you a vetted contractor?

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

Is there any odour?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Can you turn my avocado bath white?

Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.
