How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in St Vigeans

A full suite is usually 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 dated coloured suite you’d like in white and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, we can help, on coloured basins, avocado, pampas and pink baths and whole bathroom suites alike.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll come back. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

How the visit works

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes one to two days for a full suite. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  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 the new white (or other colour) finish.
  5. Each item is left to cure, typically ready the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Open a window if you can
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Landlords, agents and businesses in St Vigeans

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll handle the rest.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Angus and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Repairing versus replacing in St Vigeans

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing changes the colour without taking anything out. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Why us?

  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Everything repaired in place
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing

See our prices page and bath cost comparison.

What coloured bath resurfacing costs

Prices start from £350. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • The material
  • Access to the area
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How hard the colour is to match

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 will get a fixed figure.

Send pictures for a quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • The material, if you know it
  • One picture of the whole suite

Most clients in St Vigeans get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

FAQs for St Vigeans

Which areas do you work in?

Across the UK. Prices don’t change with location.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Can pets and children be at home?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

What happens after I send photos?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.

What about the toilet?

Talk to us first. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we’ll advise honestly before quoting.

Can you turn my avocado bath white?

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

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

What a repair can’t fix

Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:

  • 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 before booking.

Materials we repair

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

Do you need coloured bath resurfacing in St Vigeans?

Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. The problem is normally the colour, not the bath.

The things clients typically mention when they call are:

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

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • How the colour is matched

10 questions to ask before booking

DIY kit or professional repair?

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. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
