Your questions about coloured bath resurfacing in Alway
How do I get a price for coloured bath resurfacing in Alway?
Prices start from £350. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You will get a fixed figure before booking.
Do you charge for travel?
We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
What happens next?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote.
Can landlords book you?

About our coloured bath resurfacing in Alway
A full suite is normally done in one to two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. Common call-outs are for selling or letting a home with an old suite and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, in avocado, pampas and pink baths, whole bathroom suites and coloured basins.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Can I fix it myself?
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.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
Common problems we fix in Alway
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and many are still sound. The problem is usually the colour, not the bath.
You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:
- A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- Faded or patchy colour
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
Questions to ask before booking
- Aftercare advice
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- How long it needs to cure
What we do, step by step
Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a day or two, depending on how many items, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
- We leave everything to cure, usually until the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Have a window or extractor fan available
How to get a price
Upload photos of the damage and one of the whole item, with your NP19 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Alway
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
How we price coloured bath resurfacing
Prices start from £350. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. What matters most is:
- Access to the area
- Unusual colours or finishes
- What the surface is made of
- Doing more than one item at once
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.
How to get a fixed price
You can normally get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A photo taken from further back
- Something in shot to show the size
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
For a price in Alway, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
Honest limits
Before booking, it’s worth knowing 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)
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
Materials we work on in Alway
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Whole bathroom suites
- Coloured basins
- Coloured shower trays
Should you replace it?
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. Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
