Coloured bath resurfacing in Kirkton of Tough

The process

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 a day or two, depending on how many items. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
  3. We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
  5. Once cured, normally by the following day, the suite is ready.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Coloured bath resurfacing in Kirkton of Tough without replacing anything

We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. We are often asked to fix a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, across whole bathroom suites, coloured shower trays and avocado, pampas and pink baths.

Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Kirkton of Tough and across Aberdeenshire. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

When a repair is not the answer

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can 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)

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

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

Can I fix it myself?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

Landlord and trade work in Kirkton of Tough

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll handle the rest.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

How we price coloured bath resurfacing

Prices start from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The material and finish
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Unusual colours or finishes

A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from pictures

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Where you are, by postcode

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.

Questions from Kirkton of Tough

Is my repair covered?

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

Are you accredited?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Will there be a smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It clears as the materials cure.

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

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

What about the toilet?

Ask us. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we will tell you what will last.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.
