Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Partickhill
A full suite is usually done in one to two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Whether it’s a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, we can typically put it right.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll come back. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

For landlords and businesses
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Partickhill as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
What affects the price in Partickhill
Resurfacing from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Partickhill. What changes the price is:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- What the surface is made of
- Doing more than one item at once
- How hard the colour is to match
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Should you replace it?
Replacing a coloured suite means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing changes the colour with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts 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. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

Honest limits
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)
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

Advice
DIY repairs versus a professional job
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.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
Common questions in Partickhill
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
How do I book?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.
Do you charge for travel?
We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Can a coloured bath be made white?
Yes. We resurface it in white with it left in place.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
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.
