Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a coloured suite involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing changes the colour without taking anything out. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually.

Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Kilmaluag

A full suite is typically done in one to two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. Typical jobs include faded or patchy colour and selling or letting a home with an old suite, in coloured basins, whole bathroom suites and coloured shower trays.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after the visit. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Landlord and trade work in Kilmaluag

For anyone letting property in or around Kilmaluag, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we’ll price them together.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

What we do, step by step

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you’re not left guessing. On site, it takes one to two days for a full suite in most cases. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
  5. Once cured, normally by the day after, the suite is ready.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Ask for a price

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Common questions in Kilmaluag

What does coloured bath resurfacing cost?

Resurfacing from £350. Every job gets a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item with your IV51 postcode.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Do you work in Kilmaluag?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Kilmaluag and the rest of Highland. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

What do you need from me?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.

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?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

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. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.

When a repair is not the answer

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • 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 will give you a straight answer before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £350. You will know the full cost before booking. We look at:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • What the surface is made of
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

How to get a fixed quote

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • One picture of the whole suite
  • Natural light rather than flash

For a price in Kilmaluag, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
