Coloured bath resurfacing in Glespin, done in place
A full suite is generally done in one to two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. Our repair technicians work on whole bathroom suites, avocado, pampas and pink baths and coloured shower trays, and people most frequently call us about selling or letting a home with an old suite and faded or patchy colour.
You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

What we do, step by step
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take one to two days for a full suite, including clearing up.
- 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.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- Once cured, normally by the following day, the suite is ready.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
Getting a price
Email us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you are in Glespin, and we will reply with a fixed price.

What we’re called out for in Glespin
Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and many are still sound. The problem is usually the colour, not the bath.
Get in touch if you’ve noticed:
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- Faded or patchy colour
- A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
Before booking anyone
- Who will actually do the work
- If travel is included in the price
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- What aftercare is recommended
Honest limits
Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. We can’t 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 pictures and we’ll say what we think.

What affects the price in Glespin
Resurfacing from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:
- How many areas need work
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The material and finish
- Doing more than one item at once
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
How to get a fixed price
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- One sharp close-up of the damage
For a price in Glespin, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will 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.
