What we do, step by step
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a day or two, depending on how many items, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- The room is protected and ventilated.
- We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
- The surface is prepared and primed.
- The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
- We leave everything to cure, generally until the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear the area around the damage
- Open a window if you can
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
Ask for a price
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.

About our coloured bath resurfacing in Steelend
A full suite is typically done in one to two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. Our technicians work on whole bathroom suites, avocado, pampas and pink baths and coloured basins, and common reasons people get in touch are a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and selling or letting a home with an old suite.
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Fife. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Steelend: your questions answered
How much does coloured bath resurfacing cost in Steelend?
Resurfacing from £350. We give a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item with your KY12 postcode.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Are there extra charges for Steelend?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
What areas do you cover?
The whole UK, including all of Fife. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll confirm dates.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Normally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send photos.
What happens next?
We come back with a fixed quote. There is no obligation to book.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- The colour and finish to match
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Doing more than one item at once
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Send pictures for a quote
You can normally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A picture taken from further back
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire suite, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
Repairing versus replacing in Steelend
Replacing a coloured suite involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing turns it white with everything left in place. Prices start from £350. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
