Should you replace it?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing turns it white without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

About our coloured bath resurfacing in North Leith
Most suites take one or two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there is no plumbing or tiling. We regularly repair whole bathroom suites, avocado, pampas and pink baths and coloured basins, and common reasons people get in touch are faded or patchy colour and selling or letting a home with an old suite.
Every job is backed for twelve months. 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
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
What affects the price in North Leith
Resurfacing from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How many areas need work
- The material and finish
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for North Leith. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Send photos for a quote
Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- One picture of the whole suite
- Any details about the material
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
What we cannot put right
In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not 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 will give you a straight answer before booking.

The process
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Allow a day or two, depending on how many items. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to look after it.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- Each item is left to cure, typically ready the day after.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Have a window or extractor fan available

Landlords, agents and businesses in North Leith

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
