Here’s an overview of the various types and materials used for sanitaryware which we can repair and resurface in Scotland.
Enamelled Cast Iron
Traditionally used for bathtubs and sinks, enamelled cast iron is known for its durability and weight but requires proper maintenance.
Porcelain
This is a popular material for sinks and toilets due to its durability, ease of cleaning, and resistance to scratching.
Acrylic
Lighter and more flexible than cast iron, acrylic is often used for modern bathtubs and shower trays. It is resistant to cracking and easy to install.
Ceramic
Modern ceramics are very similar to porcelain but often include additives that enhance their durability and ease of cleaning. It is the most commonly used material in new sanitary installations.
Composite Stone
Used in more expensive setups, composite stone (such as quartz or granite sinks) offers exceptional durability and a unique appearance. It is scratch-resistant and easy to maintain.
Solid Surface Materials
Materials like Corian are used for their ability to create seamless surfaces and are available in a wide range of colors.
Scope and Complexity
The scale of your renovation significantly influences the cost. Simple updates like new fixtures or a fresh coat of paint are more budget-friendly compared to complete overhauls involving plumbing and layout changes.
Material Quality
Cost varies with material choices. Opting for basic materials like ceramic tiles and acrylic baths can keep costs down, while premium options like natural stone tiles or high end sanitary can increase the expense.
Labour Costs
Labour charges can vary, typically costing between £30 and £40 per hour. The total cost depends on the project’s complexity and the professionals involved.
Unexpected Expenses
Always factor in an extra 10-20% of your budget for unexpected issues, especially in older properties where hidden problems are more likely to arise.
Budgeting
A basic bathroom renovation might start at around £4,000, whereas comprehensive renovations can easily exceed £10,000, depending on your choices and the renovation’s extent.
A well-planned bathroom renovation can enhance both the functionality and value of your home, but it’s important to budget carefully and consider all potential costs.

Why should I refinish rather than replace my bathroom fixtures?

Can I resurface my entire bathroom or just specific fixtures?
Yes, you can resurface your entire bathroom. Our materials are suitable for baths, basins, toilet pedestals, and tiles, available in a range of colours and finishes.

Absolutely! You can update old colours to a modern white or any other colour that fits your current décor, enhancing the overall look and feel of your bathroom.
How long does the resurfacing process take?
The resurfacing process is quick and efficient, usually taking about three hours, and your fixture will be ready to use within 24 hours.
How long will my newly resurfaced bath last?
With proper care, a resurfaced bath can maintain its appearance for up to 10 years. Treat it as you would a car’s bodywork to keep it in excellent condition.
What if my bath seems dirty rather than damaged?
Often, a thorough clean might suffice. Use a mild abrasive cleaner and a non-scratch pad every few months. If persistent stains or roughness remain, a professional polish may restore its shine. If these steps don’t suffice, it might be time to consider resurfacing.
How much can I save by refinishing?
Refinishing can save you up to 75%, avoiding hidden costs like retiling, replumbing, and reflooring. It also avoids the extended disruption of having workmen in your home for repairs and replacements.
Is the refinishing process environmentally friendly?
