How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Barking Riverside
We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. A full suite is usually done in one to two days. Common call-outs are for a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and faded or patchy colour, in coloured shower trays, coloured basins and whole bathroom suites.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re covered after the visit. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
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.
Questions from Barking Riverside
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
What does coloured bath resurfacing cost?
Prices start from £350. Every job gets a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item and your postcode.
Do you work in Barking Riverside?
Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Barking Riverside from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
How do I book?
Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.
What coloured bath resurfacing costs
Prices start from £350. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- What the surface is made of
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Quotes from your pictures
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Natural light rather than flash
- Details of any past repairs
Most customers in Barking Riverside get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
When we’d advise against a repair
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- 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 repair
- Coloured basins
- Whole bathroom suites
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Coloured shower trays
What happens on the day
Visits start with a quick look at the job together. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. You can expect it to take one to two days for a full suite, and we will keep you posted as we go.
- The room is protected and ventilated.
- 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.
- Once cured, normally by the day after, the suite is ready.
How to prepare
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
Getting a price
We price from pictures 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, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
