How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Alder Hills
We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there is no plumbing or tiling. A full suite is generally done in one to two days. We work on coloured shower trays, coloured basins and whole bathroom suites, and people most often call us about selling or letting a home with an old suite and faded or patchy colour.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will sort it. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Questions from Alder Hills
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
How much does coloured bath resurfacing cost in Alder Hills?
Resurfacing from £350. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Can a coloured bath be made white?
Yes. We resurface it in white with it left in place.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Alder Hills.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white turns it white without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Alder Hills. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Why book with us
- Colour-matched on site
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
- Typically one visit, start to finish

Landlords, agents and businesses in Alder Hills
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Poole and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Signs you need coloured bath resurfacing in Alder Hills
Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. The problem is generally the colour, not the bath.

What coloured bath resurfacing costs
Resurfacing from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Alder Hills. What changes the price is:
- How many items we do on one visit
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

Other services in Alder Hills
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
What happens on the day
We begin by going over the job with you. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. It normally takes one to two days for a full suite, and we will tell you if anything changes.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
- We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- Each item is left to cure, usually ready the following day.
How to prepare
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Let us know about parking or access
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
Getting a price
Send us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your BH12 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
