Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Batham Gate
A full suite is generally done in one to two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. Typical jobs include a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and faded or patchy colour, on whole bathroom suites, coloured basins and coloured shower trays.
All our work comes with our one-year guarantee. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

What else we do in Batham Gate
Landlord and trade work in Batham Gate
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll arrange it.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a coloured suite involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing changes the colour with everything left in place. Prices start from £350. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Why Batham Gate clients choose us
- Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide

- No extra charge for your area

DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Signs you need coloured bath resurfacing in Batham Gate
Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and many are still sound. It’s generally the colour that dates them, not the condition.
The most common problems we are called about are:
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- Faded or patchy colour
- A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite

What we do, step by step

- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- The surface is prepared and primed.
- We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
- We leave everything to cure, usually until the next day.
Preparing for the visit

What affects the price in Batham Gate
Resurfacing from £350. There’s no charge for travel to Batham Gate. The price depends on:
- The material and finish
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The colour and finish to match
Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Getting a price from photos
Two or three clear pictures are usually enough. It helps if you send:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- One picture of the whole suite
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Your questions about coloured bath resurfacing in Batham Gate
Can a coloured bath be made white?
Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.
What about the toilet?
Talk to us first. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we will advise honestly before quoting.
Can pets and children be at home?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Do you come to Batham Gate?
We do. Repair technicians travel to Batham Gate from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Do the materials smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
What happens after I send photos?
You’ll get a fixed quote back, generally with dates to choose from. There is no obligation to book.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.
