Trusted coloured bath resurfacing in Seafield

Can I fix it myself?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

About our coloured bath resurfacing in Seafield

Most suites take one or two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. We are often asked to fix selling or letting a home with an old suite and faded or patchy colour, in coloured shower trays, coloured basins and avocado, pampas and pink baths.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Seafield as everywhere else we work. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

FAQs for Seafield

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Can you quote from photos?

Normally, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners in Seafield.

Can a coloured bath be made white?

Yes. We resurface it in white with it left in place.

Can pets and children be at home?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.

What happens if you find more damage?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Can you do the toilet too?

Talk to us first. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we’ll advise honestly before quoting.

Is the work guaranteed?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

When to call us in Seafield

Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and many are still sound. The problem is generally the colour, not the bath.

Look out for these signs:

  • Selling or letting a home with an old suite
  • A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
  • A suite that does not match a new bathroom
  • Faded or patchy colour

What to look for in a quote

  • How the colour is matched
  • How long it needs to cure
  • Who will actually do the work
  • What prep work is covered

How to compare quotes

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing turns it white without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Why choose Surface Doctor in Seafield

  • Generally one visit, start to finish
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Work done at your home or business
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

See our full price list or resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.

What we cannot put right

Some jobs aren’t 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)

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.

What we work on

  • Coloured basins
  • Avocado, pampas and pink baths
  • Coloured shower trays
  • Whole bathroom suites

Landlords, agents and businesses in Seafield

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

What affects the price in Seafield

Prices start from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How much damage there is

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Quotes from your pictures

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • One picture of the entire suite
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Any details about the material

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.

What we do, step by step

We work cleanly and quietly. We protect the area first, then the work takes one to two days for a full suite. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
  3. We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
  5. Each item is left to cure, typically ready the day after.

How to prepare

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Ask for a price

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.
