When we’d advise against a repair
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot 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)
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Coloured shower trays
- Coloured basins
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Whole bathroom suites
Coloured bath resurfacing in North Motherwell, done in place
We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. A full suite is usually done in one to two days. If you’re dealing with a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and faded or patchy colour, we can normally put it right, on coloured basins, coloured shower trays and whole bathroom suites alike.
Homes around North Motherwell range from cottages to newer houses. Older ones may still have cast iron or steel baths, which are well worth keeping.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once we have gone. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

When to call us in North Motherwell
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and many are still sound. It’s normally the colour that dates them, not the condition.
Most people get in touch when they notice something like this:
- A suite that does not match a new bathroom
- Faded or patchy colour
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
In the older streets of North Motherwell, around landmarks like Dalziel North Parish Church, an original cast iron or steel bath is worth keeping, and coloured bath resurfacing gives it years more use.

- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
- What happens if they find more damage
- Whether they match the colour on site
Work for landlords and builders
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
What coloured bath resurfacing costs
Prices start from £350. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How many items we do on one visit
- What the surface is made of
- How much damage there is
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
How to get a fixed price
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Something in shot to show the size
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Details of any past repairs
To get a price, send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

DIY kit or professional repair?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
