How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Skinflats
Most suites take one or two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Our technicians work on avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured basins and coloured shower trays, and the jobs we see most are a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white.
Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Falkirk. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
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.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
How we price coloured bath resurfacing
Resurfacing from £350. There’s no area surcharge for Skinflats. What changes the price is:
- Access to the area
- What kind of damage it is
- How many items we do on one visit
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
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 play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Skinflats questions
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
What about the toilet?
Talk to us first. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we’ll tell you what will last.
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire suite and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
Can pets and children be at home?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Can you quote from pictures?
In nearly every case. If pictures don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
What does coloured bath resurfacing cost?
Prices start from £350. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.
Do you come to Skinflats?
We do. Technicians travel to Skinflats from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Do you need coloured bath resurfacing in Skinflats?
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.
The most common problems we’re called about are:
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
- Faded or patchy colour
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- If travel is included in the price
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a coloured suite involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing changes the colour with everything left in place. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.
