Coloured Bath Resurfacing in Sandonbank
We travel to Sandonbank for resurfacing coloured baths, basins and trays in white. Nothing is taken out, and the work is guaranteed.
- Resurfacing from £350
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- Faded or patchy colour
Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
Coloured bath resurfacing in Sandonbank, done in place
A full suite is typically done in one to two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. Whether it’s a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and faded or patchy colour, we can typically put it right, on coloured shower trays, coloured basins and whole bathroom suites alike.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Sandonbank as everywhere else we work. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white turns it white with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Sandonbank questions
Do you charge for travel?
We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Do you cover Sandonbank?
We do. We send a technician to Sandonbank for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Will there be a smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it normally saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we will quote them together.
Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. We price every job individually, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- What the surface is made of
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed price
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- One picture of the entire suite
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Landlord and trade work in Sandonbank
For anyone letting property in or around Sandonbank, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we will price them together.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
What we do, step by step
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. Once we are there, the work takes one to two days for a full suite for most jobs. We leave the room clean.
- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
- We leave everything to cure, typically until the following day.
How to prepare
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Clear the area around the damage
How to get a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
