FAQs for Leuchars
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
Can you price it without visiting?
Usually, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
Can you do the toilet too?
Ask us. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we will tell you what will last.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We come back with a fixed quote, plus dates. You’re under no obligation.
What happens if you find more damage?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Leuchars
A full suite is normally done in one to two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. Whether it’s a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, we can help, on coloured basins, whole bathroom suites and avocado, pampas and pink baths alike.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

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)
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

What we are called out for in Leuchars

Landlord and trade work in Leuchars
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Fife and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Repairing versus replacing in Leuchars
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing changes the colour with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. These are the things that affect it:
- How many areas need work
- What the surface is made of
- What kind of damage it is
- How hard the colour is to match
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. 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.
Send pictures for a quote
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A picture taken from further back
To get a price, send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
How it works
Arrival times are agreed in advance. Once we’re there, the work takes one to two days for a full suite. The room is left tidy.
- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- Once cured, normally by the day after, the suite is ready.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Have a window or extractor fan available
