How the visit works
We turn up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take one to two days for a full suite, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
- We leave everything to cure, normally until the next day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
How to get a price
Upload photos of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Sandwick, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
Advice
Can I fix it myself?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Questions from Sandwick
Can you turn my avocado bath white?
Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Which areas do you work in?
All of Na h-Eileanan Siar, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
Can pets and children be at home?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
How quickly can you book me in?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
What happens next?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.
Can you do the toilet too?
Ask us. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we’ll tell you what will last.
What coloured bath resurfacing costs
Prices start from £350. There’s no charge for travel to Sandwick. The price comes down to:
- The material
- What kind of damage it is
- How many areas need work
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
How to get a fixed quote
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A wider photo showing the whole suite
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.
What a repair can’t fix
Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:
- 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)
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.
