Advice
Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Haroldswick
Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. Common call-outs are for selling or letting a home with an old suite and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, across coloured basins, coloured shower trays and whole bathroom suites.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. 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.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
Work for landlords and builders
Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
For anyone letting property in or around Haroldswick, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we’ll price them together.
Signs you need coloured bath resurfacing in Haroldswick
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. The problem is usually the colour, not the bath.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- Faded or patchy colour
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
Questions to ask before you book
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- What preparation is included
- Whether the price covers travel
Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How many items we do on one visit
- What kind of damage it is
- How much damage there is
A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Send photos for a quote
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- The material, if you know it
- One picture of the whole suite
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire suite, we can give you a fixed price.
Repair or replace in Haroldswick?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white changes the colour with everything left in place. Prices start from £350. Compared with replacing, 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.

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

Haroldswick questions
What happens next?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Normally, yes. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send pictures.
Do you come to Haroldswick?
We do. We send a technician to Haroldswick for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Do you cover the entire of the Shetland Islands?
Across the UK, so Haroldswick is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
What information do you need?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
