How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Backwell Common
Most suites take one or two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. We work on coloured basins, avocado, pampas and pink baths 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.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Backwell Common questions
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in Backwell Common.
Are there extra charges for Backwell Common?
There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
How soon can you come?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we will quote them together.
How much does coloured bath resurfacing cost in Backwell Common?
Prices start from £350. We give a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item and your postcode.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
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, and the work is guaranteed.
How we price coloured bath resurfacing
Resurfacing from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:
- The type of damage
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The colour and finish to match
- What the surface is made of
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Quotes from your photos
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- Details of any past repairs
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A picture taken from further back
We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.
Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white changes the colour without taking anything out. Prices start 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 pictures and you will get a fixed figure.
What you get with us
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- Same prices wherever you are
- We leave the room as we found it

What we do, step by step
Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. You can expect it to take one to two days for a full suite.
- The room is protected and ventilated.
- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- The surface is prepared and primed.
- We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
- Once cured, normally by the day after, the suite is ready.
How to prepare
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Clear the area around the damage
- Point us to the nearest place to park
How to get a price
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Honest limits
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- 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)
