About our coloured bath resurfacing in Shettleston
Most suites take one or two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there is no plumbing or tiling. We work on coloured basins, coloured shower trays and whole bathroom suites, and common reasons people contact us are a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and selling or letting a home with an old suite.
Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Should you replace it?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white changes the colour without taking anything out. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. 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’ll get a fixed figure.

Work for landlords and builders
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Shettleston use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
Can I fix it myself?
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, then guarantee it for a year.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
What we do, step by step
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a day or two, depending on how many items. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.
- The room is protected and ventilated.
- We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- Once cured, normally by the day after, the suite is ready.
How to prepare
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Advice
Questions from Shettleston
What do you need from me?
Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.
Do the materials smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
What areas do you cover?
Everywhere in the UK, Shettleston included. Travel is included in the price.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

What affects the price in Shettleston

- Whether we combine several jobs
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The type of damage
- How much damage there is
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Something in shot to show the size
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire suite, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
When to call us in Shettleston
Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. It’s generally the colour that dates them, not the condition.
Get in touch if you’ve noticed:
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
- Faded or patchy colour
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- When it can be used again
- What protection goes down before work starts
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
What we cannot put right
We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- 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 photos and we will tell you honestly.
