About our coloured bath resurfacing in Baybridge
A full suite is typically done in one to two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. Our technicians work on coloured basins, coloured shower trays and whole bathroom suites, and common reasons people contact us are faded or patchy colour and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

What we do, step by step
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job normally takes one to two days for a full suite. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- The surface is prepared and primed.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- Once cured, normally by the day after, the suite is ready.
How to prepare
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
How to get a price
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Baybridge questions
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
Will there be a smell?
Expect a mild smell while we are working.
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole suite and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
What happens if you find more damage?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Are there extra charges for Baybridge?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
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 do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, 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.
Work for landlords and builders
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
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.
Do you need coloured bath resurfacing in Baybridge?
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.
Most people contact us when they notice one of these:
- A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
- Faded or patchy colour
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white

What a repair cannot fix
We will not take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- 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.
What we work on
- Coloured shower trays
- Whole bathroom suites
- Coloured basins
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
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. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Quotes from your pictures
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing changes the colour without taking anything out. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.
