Common questions in Galltair

Do you cover the whole of Highland?

We work UK-wide, and that includes Galltair. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Will you leave a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.

Do you charge for travel?

We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Is there any odour?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It fades as everything cures.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.

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.

Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Galltair

A full suite is usually done in one to two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. Typical jobs include a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and selling or letting a home with an old suite, on coloured shower trays, whole bathroom suites and avocado, pampas and pink baths.

Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

How the visit works

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take one to two days for a full suite, tidy-up included.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
  3. We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
  5. Each item is left to cure, usually ready the next day.

How to prepare

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Advice

Work for landlords and builders

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Highland and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Do you need coloured bath resurfacing in Galltair?

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

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • A suite that doesn’t 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 your quote should include

  • How your room will be protected
  • How long it needs to cure
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included

How to compare quotes

What a repair cannot fix

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • 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 will tell you honestly.

Materials we work on in Galltair

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

Should you replace it?

Replacing a coloured suite involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing turns it white without taking anything out. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. 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

  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Colour-matched on site
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year

How we price coloured bath resurfacing

Prices start from £350. We price every job individually. What matters most is:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The size and number of damaged areas

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.

Getting a price from photos

Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A wider photo showing the entire suite
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
