Pumpherston questions
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you will get one combined price.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Can a coloured bath be made white?
Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.
Which areas do you work in?
Everywhere in the UK, Pumpherston included. Travel is included in the price.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
How do I get a price for coloured bath resurfacing in Pumpherston?
Resurfacing from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote with dates.
When a repair is not the answer
To be straight with you, 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)
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
Materials we repair

DIY repairs versus a professional job
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Pumpherston
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in West Lothian and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
Common problems we fix in Pumpherston
Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. It’s typically the colour that dates them, not the condition.
Customers normally contact us about:
- A suite that does not match a new bathroom
- Faded or patchy colour
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite

Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white turns it white with everything left in place. Prices start from £350. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.
Why choose Surface Doctor in Pumpherston
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish

What coloured bath resurfacing costs
Prices start from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Pumpherston. The price reflects:
- What kind of damage it is
- Doing more than one item at once
- Access to the area
- The colour and finish to match
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Getting a price from pictures
Phone pictures are fine, there is no need for anything special. Ensure they show:
- A wider photo showing the entire suite
- The material, if you know it
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Upload a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Pumpherston, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
What we do, step by step
We agree an arrival time beforehand. On site, it takes a day or two, depending on how many items. We leave the room clean.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
- Each item is left to cure, usually ready the day after.
How to prepare
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Open a window if you can
How to get a price
To get a price, send two or three pictures using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
