How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Barbrook
We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. Whether it’s a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and faded or patchy colour, we can generally put it right, on coloured basins, whole bathroom suites and coloured shower trays alike.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Questions from Barbrook
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Can you quote from pictures?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Will the price change on the day?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
Can tenants book a repair?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
What areas do you cover?
Everywhere in the UK, Barbrook included. There’s no extra charge for travel.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.
Repair or replace in Barbrook?
Replacing a coloured suite involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing turns it white without taking anything out. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

When to call us in Barbrook
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. The problem is generally the colour, not the bath.
Contact us if you’ve noticed any of these:
- Faded or patchy colour
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom

The process
On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a day or two, depending on how many items. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
- The surface is prepared and primed.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- Once cured, normally by the day after, the suite is ready.
Preparing for the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Let us know about parking or access
Getting a price
To get a price, send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
Advice
Can I fix it myself?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
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 then the old filler has to be removed first.
When we would advise against a repair
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)
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Surfaces we repair
- Coloured basins
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Coloured shower trays
- Whole bathroom suites

What affects the price in Barbrook
Resurfacing from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- What the surface is made of
There are no surprise 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.
Quotes from your photos
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Details of any past repairs
- A wider photo showing the entire suite
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
