Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Bathford
Most suites take one or two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. We regularly repair whole bathroom suites, coloured shower trays and avocado, pampas and pink baths, and common reasons people contact us are faded or patchy colour and selling or letting a home with an old suite.
All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- What kind of damage it is
- The colour and finish to match
- The material and finish
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Getting a price from photos
You can typically get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Details of any past repairs
- Any details about the material
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

Landlord and trade work in Bathford
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

When to call us in Bathford
Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. It’s usually the colour that dates them, not the condition.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Faded or patchy colour
- A suite that does not match a new bathroom
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
What to look for in a quote
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- What preparation is included
- How soon you can use it again
- How the colour is matched
When a repair is not the answer
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- 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 pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
Materials we repair
- Coloured shower trays
- Whole bathroom suites
- Coloured basins
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
How it works
From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a day or two, depending on how many items, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- The room is protected and ventilated.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- The surface is prepared and primed.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- We leave everything to cure, normally until the day after.
How to prepare
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
Ask for a price

Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a coloured suite involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing changes the colour without taking anything out. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Bathford. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Why choose Surface Doctor in Bathford
- Free fixed quotes from pictures
- We leave the room as we found it
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
- No need to remove anything
Read our prices page and guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
