Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Thornton
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 shower trays, whole bathroom suites and coloured basins, and common reasons people get in touch are a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and selling or letting a home with an old suite.
All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Fife. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Repair or replace: which is better?

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

How it works

- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- Each item is left to cure, normally ready the following day.
How to prepare

- Open a window if you can

Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The type of damage
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.
Quotes from your pictures
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- Any details about the material
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Something in shot to show the size
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Email us pictures of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Thornton, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
