Coloured bath resurfacing near Glencoe

What we can’t put right

We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • 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 pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

What we work on

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

How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Glencoe

Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. We’re often asked to fix faded or patchy colour and selling or letting a home with an old suite, across avocado, pampas and pink baths, whole bathroom suites and coloured basins.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll sort it. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing changes the colour with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Why us?

  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • Work done at your home or business
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • Colour-matched on site

Prices and what affects them

Resurfacing from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • How many areas need work
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How many items we do on one visit

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Getting a price from pictures

When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Any details about the material
  • A photo taken from further back

Send us a photo of the damage and one of the whole item, with your PH49 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Glencoe: your questions answered

Are there extra charges for Glencoe?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Can I add another job to the visit?

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

Can you price it without visiting?

Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

Can a coloured bath be made white?

Yes. We resurface it in white with it left in place.

Which areas do you work in?

We cover the whole UK, including Glencoe and the rest of Highland. Send your postcode with your photos and we will confirm dates.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

How the visit works

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you are not left guessing. Once we are there, the work takes one to two days for a full suite in most cases. We leave the room clean.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any 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. Once cured, normally by the next day, the suite is ready.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Open a window if you can

How to get a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole suite, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

For landlords and businesses

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 is easier on the people living there.

For anyone letting property in or around Glencoe, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we will price them together.

What we’re called out for in Glencoe

Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and many are still sound. It’s generally the colour that dates them, not the condition.

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

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

Before you book anyone

  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • Aftercare advice
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
