Coloured bath resurfacing near Kingussie

Coloured bath resurfacing in Kingussie without replacing anything

Most suites take one or 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 a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, in coloured shower trays, whole bathroom suites and coloured basins.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

What coloured bath resurfacing costs

Resurfacing from £350. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. What matters most is:

  • The material
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How much damage there is
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed price

You can generally get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A wider photo showing the whole suite
  • The material, if you know it

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

10 questions to ask before you book

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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, it’s worth having it done properly.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing changes the colour with everything left in place. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

For landlords and businesses

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

Your questions about coloured bath resurfacing in Kingussie

Can you turn my avocado bath white?

Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners.

Is it worth repairing rather 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.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and you’ll get one combined price.

How much does coloured bath resurfacing cost in Kingussie?

Resurfacing from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.

Do you come to Kingussie?

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

What a repair cannot fix

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • 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.

Surfaces we repair

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

What we do, step by step

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we’re there. We protect the area first, then the work takes one to two days for a full suite. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

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

Before we arrive

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
