About our coloured bath resurfacing in Ashbury

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. Typical jobs include a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, across whole bathroom suites, avocado, pampas and pink baths and coloured basins.

You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

What happens on the day

From the moment we arrive, 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.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
  3. The surface is prepared and primed.
  4. The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
  5. Each item is left to cure, typically ready the day after.

Preparing for the visit

  • Open a window if you can
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

  • Selling or letting a home with an old suite
  • A suite that does not match a new bathroom
  • Faded or patchy colour
  • A dated coloured suite you’d like in white

What your quote should include

  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • How the colour is matched
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • Whether the price covers travel

Our hiring checklist

Should you replace it?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing turns it white with everything left in place. Prices start from £350. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Why us?

  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • A fixed quote before you book
  • Nothing taken out or refitted

Read our prices page and guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.

For landlords and businesses

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Ashbury use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll arrange it.

What we can’t put right

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

  • 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 pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we repair

  • Coloured basins
  • Whole bathroom suites
  • Avocado, pampas and pink baths
  • Coloured shower trays

Can I fix it myself?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Ashbury questions

Can you price it without visiting?

Typically, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Typically, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

How do I book?

Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

What happens after I send pictures?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Which areas do you work in?

All of Swindon, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

Do you come to Ashbury?

Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Ashbury from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

What coloured bath resurfacing costs

Resurfacing from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Ashbury. What changes the price is:

  • The material and finish
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The size and number of damaged areas

Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. 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.

Quotes from your photos

Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • The material, if you know it

For a price in Ashbury, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
