How the visit works
From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a day or two, depending on how many items, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- We prepare 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 day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Make sure the area is dry
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
How to get a price
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Coloured bath resurfacing in Fountainhall, done in place
We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. If you are dealing with a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, we can usually put it right, on whole bathroom suites, coloured shower trays and coloured basins alike.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a coloured suite means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white changes the colour without taking anything out. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
What you get with us
- Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
- One-year guarantee on every repair
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- No need to remove anything

When a repair is not the answer
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)
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
Materials we work on in Fountainhall

For landlords and businesses
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.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in the Scottish Borders and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

How we price coloured bath resurfacing
Prices start from £350. We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- Access to the area
- What kind of damage it is
- The material
- How many items we do on one visit
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Quotes from your pictures
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:
- Natural light rather than flash
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A wider photo showing the entire suite
- Any details about the material
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’ll reply with a fixed price.

Fountainhall: your questions answered
How do I get a price for coloured bath resurfacing in Fountainhall?
Resurfacing from £350. We give a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
What about the toilet?
Talk to us first. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we’ll tell you what will last.
Can you quote from photos?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
What information do you need?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
What happens next?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Are there extra charges for Fountainhall?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
DIY kit or professional repair?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
