DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
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, a professional repair is worth it.
Coloured bath resurfacing in Inverkeithing without replacing anything
We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. A full suite is usually done in one to two days. Whether it’s faded or patchy colour and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, we can generally put it right.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

What coloured bath resurfacing costs
Resurfacing from £350. We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How many items we do on one visit
- How many areas need work
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Quotes from your photos
Two or three clear pictures are normally enough. Try to include:
- A photo taken from further back
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- What it’s made of, if you know
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say straight away whether it can be repaired.
The process
Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for one to two days for a full suite. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- The room is protected and ventilated.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- The surface is prepared and primed.
- We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
- Once cured, normally by the next day, the suite is ready.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know about parking or access
- Open a window if you can
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
Getting a price
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

Your questions about coloured bath resurfacing in Inverkeithing
Do you cover Inverkeithing?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Inverkeithing and the rest of Fife. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
Can pets and children be at home?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Which areas do you work in?
We cover the entire UK, including Inverkeithing and the rest of Fife. Send your postcode with your photos and we will offer you dates.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Can a coloured bath be made white?
Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Honest limits
We won’t take on work that will not 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)
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.
Materials we work on in Inverkeithing
- Whole bathroom suites
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths

Landlords, agents and businesses in Inverkeithing
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing turns it white without taking anything out. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. 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 photos, so you know the cost before booking.
