About our coloured bath resurfacing in Whithorn
A full suite is generally done in one to two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. Whether it’s a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and selling or letting a home with an old suite, we can generally put it right.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Common questions in Whithorn
Is there any odour?
Expect a mild smell while we are working.
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Which areas do you work in?
All of Dumfries and Galloway, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
What does coloured bath resurfacing cost?
Resurfacing from £350. Every job gets a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item with your DG8 postcode.
What affects the price in Whithorn
Resurfacing from £350. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We look at:
- The colour and finish to match
- Doing more than one item at once
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The size and number of damaged areas
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Getting a price from photos
Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Details of any past repairs
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Any details about the material
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire suite, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
When we would advise against a repair
We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- 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)
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Coloured basins
- Coloured shower trays
- Whole bathroom suites
Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing changes the colour without taking anything out. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking.
Why Whithorn clients choose us
- Same prices wherever you are
- No need to remove anything
- Work done at your home or business
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited

Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

- The room is protected and ventilated.
- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
- Each item is left to cure, normally ready the following day.
