How we price coloured bath resurfacing
Resurfacing from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:
- Access to the area
- The colour and finish to match
- How many items we do on one visit
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
How to get a fixed price
You can normally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A photo taken from further back
- The material, if you know it
Most clients in Innerleithen get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Innerleithen
A full suite is usually done in one to two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. We regularly repair whole bathroom suites, coloured shower trays and coloured basins, and the jobs we see most are faded or patchy colour and selling or letting a home with an old suite.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once we’ve gone. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

What else we do in Innerleithen
Landlords, agents and businesses in Innerleithen
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
The process
From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a day or two, depending on how many items, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- The surface is prepared and primed.
- The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
- Once cured, normally by the next day, the suite is ready.
Getting ready for the visit
- Make sure the area is dry
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Make sure the room can be ventilated

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the suite, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
Advice
Signs you need coloured bath resurfacing in Innerleithen
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.
If you can see any of these, send us a picture:
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- A suite that does not match a new bathroom
- Faded or patchy colour
What to look for in a quote
- What prep work is covered
- Who will actually do the work
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
- How your room will be protected
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a coloured suite means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing turns it white with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.
Why Innerleithen clients choose us

Questions from Innerleithen
Which areas do you work in?
We work UK-wide. Prices don’t change with location.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send pictures.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
What happens after I send pictures?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Do you cover Innerleithen?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Innerleithen. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
When we would advise against a repair
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)
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.
