Coloured bath resurfacing in Barnhill without replacing anything
Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. A full suite is usually done in one to two days. Common call-outs are for a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, in whole bathroom suites, avocado, pampas and pink baths and coloured basins.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

The process
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a day or two, depending on how many items. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.
- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- Once cured, normally by the following day, the suite is ready.
Before we arrive
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Have a window or extractor fan available
How to get a price

Advice
Can I fix it myself?
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.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

Your questions about coloured bath resurfacing in Barnhill
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Can a coloured bath be made white?
Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
What happens after I send pictures?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
How we price coloured bath resurfacing
Resurfacing from £350. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- What kind of damage it is
- Access to the area
- How many items we do on one visit
- The size and number of damaged areas
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 photos and you will get a fixed figure.
Send photos for a quote
Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- What it’s made of, if you know
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.
When a repair isn’t the answer
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, including:
- 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.
