Warriston questions

Do you cover the whole of Edinburgh?

The whole UK, including all of Edinburgh. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Will you leave a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

How do I book?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Can you do the toilet too?

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

Is repairing better than replacing?

Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

What coloured bath resurfacing costs

Resurfacing from £350. We price every job individually. The main factors are:

  • How many areas need work
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether we combine several jobs

We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Send photos for a quote

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:

  • Any details about the material
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

If you’re in Warriston and want a price, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

How the visit works

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you are not left guessing. On site, it takes a day or two, depending on how many items for most jobs. The room is left tidy.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
  5. We leave everything to cure, normally until the following day.

How to prepare

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Getting a price

We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

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

Choosing a repair company

Honest limits

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • The inside of a toilet bowl, unless we’ve agreed it will last

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Materials we work on in Warriston

Repairing versus replacing in Warriston

Replacing a coloured suite involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing changes the colour with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

  • A fixed quote before booking
