When a repair is not the answer
To be straight with you, 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)
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Yorkhill
We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. A full suite is generally done in one to two days. Common call-outs are for a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and selling or letting a home with an old suite, across coloured shower trays, whole bathroom suites and coloured basins.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

For landlords and businesses
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
FAQs for Yorkhill
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Do you come to Yorkhill?
We do. We send a technician to Yorkhill for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

- We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
- We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.

Advice
Repairing versus replacing in Yorkhill
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white changes the colour with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Why book with us
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- Free fixed quotes from pictures
- One-year guarantee on every repair
- Colour mixed on the day to match

How we price coloured bath resurfacing
Resurfacing from £350. There is no charge for travel to Yorkhill. The price comes down to:
- Access to the area
- The type of damage
- The material
- How hard the colour is to match
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Send pictures for a quote
Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. Try to include:
- One picture of the whole suite
- Details of any past repairs
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
