Coloured bath resurfacing in Batchworth Heath without replacing anything
A full suite is usually done in one to two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. Whether it’s a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.
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?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The material
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How much damage there is
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Getting a price from photos
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- The material, if you know it
- A picture taken from further back
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
Questions from Batchworth Heath
Are you a vetted contractor?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
How much does coloured bath resurfacing cost in Batchworth Heath?
Resurfacing from £350. Every job gets a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item and your postcode.
Which areas do you work in?
Across the UK, so Batchworth Heath is covered. Prices do not change with location.
What about the toilet?
Ask us. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we’ll advise honestly before quoting.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
When we’d advise against a repair
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- 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
- Whole bathroom suites
- Coloured basins
- Coloured shower trays
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths

Advice
When to call us in Batchworth Heath
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and many are still sound. It’s typically the colour that dates them, not the condition.
Look out for any of the following:
- Faded or patchy colour
- A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
What your quote should include
- What happens if they find more damage
- What preparation is included
- How long it needs to cure
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a coloured suite involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white changes the colour without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Batchworth Heath. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
