Repairing versus replacing in Tillydrone
Replacing a coloured suite involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing changes the colour without taking anything out. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.
What you get with us
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- Free fixed quotes from pictures

Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Tillydrone
We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. A full suite is typically done in one to two days. We are often asked to fix faded or patchy colour and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, across avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured shower trays and whole bathroom suites.
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. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

What a repair can’t fix
In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- 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)

Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
How we price coloured bath resurfacing
Resurfacing from £350. We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How many items we do on one visit
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.
Getting a price from photos
Two or three clear photos are generally enough. Try to include:
- The material, if you know it
- Where you are, by postcode
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We’ll say right away whether it can be repaired.
Common problems we fix in Tillydrone
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. It’s typically the colour that dates them, not the condition.

- 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
What your quote should include
- Aftercare advice
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges

Work for landlords and builders
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
How it works
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 one to two days for a full suite. If anything looks different from your pictures, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.
- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- The surface is prepared and primed.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- Each item is left to cure, typically ready the day after.
How to prepare
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
How to get a price
