How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Bank Top
Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. We work on coloured basins, avocado, pampas and pink baths and coloured shower trays, and the jobs we see most are a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and selling or letting a home with an old suite.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Bank Top as everywhere else we work. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

What affects the price in Bank Top
Prices start from £350. We don’t charge extra for travel to Bank Top. The price comes down to:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- What the surface is made of
- How much damage there is
- Whether we combine several jobs
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 make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Send pictures for a quote
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:
- Natural light rather than flash
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

When we would advise against a repair
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)

Repairing versus replacing in Bank Top
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing changes the colour with everything left in place. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

- We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
- We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
- We leave everything to cure, normally until the next day.
