Coloured bath resurfacing in Monifieth, done in place

Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. If you are dealing with selling or letting a home with an old suite and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.

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.

Signs you need coloured bath resurfacing in Monifieth

Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. It’s normally the colour that dates them, not the condition.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • A suite that doesn’t 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
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • How the room is protected while they work

Choosing a repair company

Landlords, agents and businesses in Monifieth

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Monifieth as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white changes the colour with everything left in place. Prices start from £350. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Why us?

  • Work done at your home or business
  • A fixed quote before you book
  • One price list for the entire UK
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing

Monifieth questions

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Is it messy?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

When can you do it?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Is there any odour?

There can be some smell while we work. It clears as the materials cure.

What does coloured bath resurfacing cost?

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

Are there extra charges for Monifieth?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

What information do you need?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire suite and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Can I fix it myself?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

When we would advise against a repair

In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • 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 pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Materials we work on in Monifieth

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

How we price coloured bath resurfacing

Resurfacing from £350. We price every job individually. What matters most is:

  • What the surface is made of
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

How to get a fixed quote

You can take the photos on your phone. Just ensure we can see:

  • A wider photo showing the whole suite
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire suite, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

What happens on the day

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes one to two days for a full suite, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  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. We leave everything to cure, generally until the next day.

Before we arrive

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Ask for a price
