Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Barwood
Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. We regularly repair avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured basins and coloured shower trays, and the jobs we see most are selling or letting a home with an old suite and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom.
Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

What happens on the day
The work is clean and fairly quiet. We protect the area first, then the work takes one to two days for a full suite. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- The surface is prepared and primed.
- The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
- Once cured, normally by the day after, the suite is ready.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know about parking or access
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Keep a parking space free if you can

Advice
Work for landlords and builders
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves 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. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.
Why choose Surface Doctor in Barwood

Signs you need coloured bath resurfacing in Barwood
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and many are still sound. The problem is normally the colour, not the bath.
Send us a picture if you notice any of these:
- 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
- Faded or patchy colour
Before you book anyone
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
DIY repairs versus a professional job
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.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. We do not charge extra for travel to Barwood. The price depends on:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How much damage there is
- What kind of damage it is
- Doing more than one item at once
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Send pictures for a quote
You can usually get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:
- Any details about the material
- Where you are, by postcode
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
Barwood: your questions answered
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send pictures.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
What information do you need?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work. It clears as the materials cure.
