Coloured bath resurfacing in Barnwell without replacing anything
Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there is no plumbing or tiling. A full suite is normally done in one to two days. Our repair technicians work on avocado, pampas and pink baths, whole bathroom suites and coloured basins, and common reasons people get in touch are a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and faded or patchy colour.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

FAQs for Barnwell
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole suite and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
What about the toilet?
Ask us. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we will tell you what will last.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners.
Can you quote from photos?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Will the price change on the day?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Repair or replace in Barnwell?
Replacing a coloured suite means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white turns it white with everything left in place. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Barnwell. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
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.
What happens on the day
We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. 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.
- We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
- We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- We leave everything to cure, typically until the following day.
Before we arrive
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
Getting a price
Upload a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your PE8 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
