Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Oban
We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. Whether it’s a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, we can typically put it right, on coloured shower trays, whole bathroom suites and avocado, pampas and pink baths alike.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
Oban: your questions answered
How do I get a price for coloured bath resurfacing in Oban?
Prices start from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.
Do you cover the entire of Argyll and Bute?
We cover the entire UK, including Oban and the rest of Argyll and Bute. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and you will get one combined price.
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

How it works
You don’t need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. It generally takes one to two days for a full suite, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
- Each item is left to cure, usually ready the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access

For landlords and businesses
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Argyll and Bute and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Repairing versus replacing in Oban
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 whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Why us?
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- Free fixed quotes from pictures
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

What affects the price in Oban
Prices start from £350. We don’t charge extra for travel to Oban. The price depends on:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The colour and finish to match
- The material
- Doing more than one item at once
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 make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Send photos for a quote
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:

- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- The material, if you know it
