Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Larbert

We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. If you are dealing with a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and faded or patchy colour, we can help, whatever the material.

Every job is backed for twelve months in Larbert and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a coloured suite means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing turns it white with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Why book with us

  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Colour-matched on site
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • A year’s guarantee on all work

Prices and what affects them

Resurfacing from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Access to the area
  • Unusual colours or finishes

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book.

How to get a fixed quote

You can typically get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Any details about the material
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

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

Landlords, agents and businesses in Larbert

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

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Larbert use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

Common questions in Larbert

Can a coloured bath be made white?

Yes. We resurface it in white with it left in place.

Which areas do you work in?

We cover the whole UK, including Larbert and the rest of Falkirk. Send your postcode with your photos and we will offer you dates.

Is there any odour?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.

Is my repair covered?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Can landlords book you?

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

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Can you do the toilet too?

Talk to us first. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we’ll tell you what will last.

What happens on the day

On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job generally takes one to two days for a full suite. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  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. We leave everything to cure, typically until the next day.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
