Coloured bath resurfacing in Kelvingrove, done in place
A full suite is normally done in one to two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. Common call-outs are for a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and faded or patchy colour, on coloured basins, avocado, pampas and pink baths and whole bathroom suites.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a coloured suite involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing changes the colour with everything left in place. Prices start from £350. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.
Why book with us
- One-year guarantee on every repair
- Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- Everything repaired in place

Landlords, agents and businesses in Kelvingrove
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will arrange it.
DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
Do you need coloured bath resurfacing in Kelvingrove?
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. The problem is generally the colour, not the bath.
Look out for these signs:
- Faded or patchy colour
- 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
Before you book anyone
- Aftercare advice
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- What preparation is included
- How soon you can use it again
When a repair isn’t the answer
Some jobs are not right for a repair, including:
- 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 photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Will there be a smell?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working, which fades afterwards.
Can you turn my avocado bath white?
Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.

Resurfacing from £350. We give a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item with your G3 postcode.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

What affects the price in Kelvingrove
Resurfacing from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- The material and finish
- The type of damage
- How hard the colour is to match
- How many areas need work
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
How to get a fixed price
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- A picture taken from further back
- Where you are, by postcode
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire suite, we can price the job the same day in most cases.
What happens on the day
There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. The job generally runs to a day or two, depending on how many items, including clearing up.
- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- The surface is prepared and primed.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- We leave everything to cure, normally until the following day.
