DIY repairs versus a professional job
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
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.
Coloured bath resurfacing in Kingarth without replacing anything
We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. Whether it’s a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and faded or patchy colour, we can help.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll come back. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Common questions in Kingarth
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Can you do the toilet too?
Ask us. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we’ll tell you what will last.
Are there extra charges for Kingarth?
There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Can you quote from pictures?
Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Can you turn my avocado bath white?
Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.

What a repair can’t fix
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not 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)
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

What coloured bath resurfacing costs
Resurfacing from £350. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. This is what makes a difference:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- What the surface is made of
- How much damage there is
Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Quotes from your photos
Two or three clear photos are generally enough. It helps if you send:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- What it’s made of, if you know
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A picture taken from further back
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
What we do, step by step
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for a day or two, depending on how many items. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- The room is protected and ventilated.
- We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
- We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- Each item is left to cure, usually ready the day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Open a window if you can
- Let us know which floor the room is on
How to get a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.
Advice
What we’re called out for in Kingarth
Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and many are still sound. The problem is typically the colour, not the bath.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- Faded or patchy colour
What your quote should include
- Who will actually do the work
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- Aftercare advice
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
Should you replace it?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing changes the colour with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Why book with us
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- No need to remove anything
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- Work done at your home or business
