Coloured bath resurfacing in Kirkcowan, done in place
A full suite is generally done in one to two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. We regularly repair avocado, pampas and pink baths, whole bathroom suites and coloured shower trays, and the jobs we see most are a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and selling or letting a home with an old suite.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll sort it. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

What coloured bath resurfacing costs
Resurfacing from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- The type of damage
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How hard the colour is to match
- How easy the damage is to reach
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Quotes from your photos
Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Natural light rather than flash
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole suite, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Kirkcowan
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.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

When a repair isn’t the answer
A repair is not always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:
- 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)
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.
What we work on
- Whole bathroom suites
- Coloured basins
- Coloured shower trays
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
Can I fix it myself?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Common problems we fix in Kirkcowan
Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. It’s generally the colour that dates them, not the condition.
The most common problems we’re called about are:
- A suite that does not match a new bathroom
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- Faded or patchy colour
What your quote should include
- Who turns up on the day
- How the colour is matched
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- If travel is included in the price
How the visit works
Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Plan for a day or two, depending on how many items from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to care for it.
- The room is protected and ventilated.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- We leave everything to cure, generally until the day after.
Getting ready for the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
