Trusted coloured bath resurfacing in Kilbeg

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a coloured suite means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing changes the colour with everything left in place. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures

Coloured bath resurfacing in Kilbeg, done in place

Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. We work on whole bathroom suites, coloured basins and coloured shower trays, and common reasons people contact us are faded or patchy colour and selling or letting a home with an old suite.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

What we cannot put right

A repair isn’t right for every job, 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)

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

What we work on

  • Whole bathroom suites
  • Coloured shower trays
  • Coloured basins
  • Avocado, pampas and pink baths

Your questions about coloured bath resurfacing in Kilbeg

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Highland.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

Can you quote from photos?

Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Kilbeg. The price reflects:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The material
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

How to get a fixed quote

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

Upload a photo of the damage and one of the whole item, with your IV44 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

What we do, step by step

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to one to two days for a full suite.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
  5. We leave everything to cure, normally until the day after.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Ensure the area is dry

Ask for a price

Work for landlords and builders

Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

For anyone letting property in or around Kilbeg, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.

Common problems we fix in Kilbeg

Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. It’s generally the colour that dates them, not the condition.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • Faded or patchy colour
  • A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
  • Selling or letting a home with an old suite
  • A dated coloured suite you’d like in white

Before you book anyone

  • How the room is protected while they work
  • How the colour is matched
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
