Coloured bath resurfacing in Tycoch, done in place
A full suite is normally done in one to two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there is no plumbing or tiling. If you are dealing with a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and faded or patchy colour, we can help, whatever the material.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

What affects the price in Tycoch
Resurfacing from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How hard the colour is to match
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- What kind of damage it is
We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Tycoch. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Getting a price from pictures
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- The material, if you know it
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A photo taken from further back

When to call us in Tycoch
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and many are still sound. The problem is usually the colour, not the bath.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- A suite that does not match a new bathroom
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite

Can I fix it myself?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

The process
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take one to two days for a full suite, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- The room is protected and ventilated.
- We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
- Once cured, normally by the day after, the suite is ready.
Getting ready for the visit
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Advice
Landlord and trade work in Tycoch
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
