Trusted coloured bath resurfacing in Mossbank

Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Mossbank

Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. A full suite is usually done in one to two days. We are often asked to fix faded or patchy colour and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, on whole bathroom suites, avocado, pampas and pink baths and coloured shower trays.

You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

What we can’t put right

In fairness, some problems need a different 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)

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

When to call us in Mossbank

Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. It’s typically the colour that dates them, not the condition.

The most common problems we’re called about are:

  • Selling or letting a home with an old suite
  • Faded or patchy colour
  • A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
  • A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom

Questions from Mossbank

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

Which areas do you work in?

All of the Shetland Islands, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.

How quickly can you book me in?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Will there be a smell?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

Can I add another job to the visit?

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

How do I book?

Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Do you work in Mossbank?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Mossbank. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across the Shetland Islands.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

What we do, step by step

We work cleanly and quietly. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes one to two days for a full suite. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
  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.

How to prepare

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Ask for a price

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a coloured suite means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing turns it white without taking anything out. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Why book with us

  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • One visit for most repairs
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited

See our pricing and bath cost comparison.

What coloured bath resurfacing costs

Resurfacing from £350. There is no area surcharge for Mossbank. What changes the price is:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The material

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Mossbank. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Send pictures for a quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Details of any past repairs
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the suite, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
