For landlords and businesses
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in North Ayrshire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Girdle Toll
Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. We regularly repair avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured shower trays and whole bathroom suites, and common reasons people get in touch are a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom.
You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

What we can’t put right
A repair is not right for every job, for example:
- 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 pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Girdle Toll: your questions answered

Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
Do you cover the entire of North Ayrshire?
We cover the entire UK, including Girdle Toll and the rest of North Ayrshire. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.

There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we will quote them together.

What we do, step by step
Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Allow a day or two, depending on how many items. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
- We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
- Once cured, normally by the next day, the suite is ready.
Before we arrive
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Let us know about parking or access
Getting a price

How we price coloured bath resurfacing
Resurfacing from £350. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- The type of damage
- Access to the area
- Doing more than one item at once
- The colour and finish to match
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
How to get a fixed quote
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Any details about the material
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Something in shot to show the size
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire suite, we can give you a fixed quote.
Can I fix it myself?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

What we’re called out for in Girdle Toll
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and many are still sound. The problem is generally the colour, not the bath.
Clients typically contact us about:
- Faded or patchy colour
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- A suite that does not match a new bathroom
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
What your quote should include

- How long it needs to cure
- Who turns up on the day
Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing turns it white with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
