Coloured Bath Resurfacing for Bentilee homes
We travel to Bentilee for resurfacing coloured baths, basins and trays in white. Nothing is taken out, and the work is guaranteed.
- Resurfacing from £350
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
How we price coloured bath resurfacing
Prices start from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The colour and finish to match
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The material
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from pictures
Phone pictures are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- One picture of the whole suite
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Natural light rather than flash
- What it’s made of, if you know
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Coloured bath resurfacing in Bentilee without replacing anything
Most suites take one or two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. We regularly repair coloured basins, whole bathroom suites and coloured shower trays, and people most often call us about selling or letting a home with an old suite and faded or patchy colour.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Bentilee as everywhere else we work. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
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 the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Bentilee: your questions answered
Can you turn my avocado bath white?
Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Can you quote from photos?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.
What happens next?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.
Which areas do you work in?
The entire UK, including all of Stoke-on-Trent. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll offer you dates.
Work for landlords and builders
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.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Bentilee as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

How the visit works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Allow a day or two, depending on how many items from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- Each item is left to cure, typically ready the following day.
How to prepare
- Clear the area around the damage
- Open a window if you can
- Let us know about parking or access
Get a quote
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.
Advice
What we cannot put right
We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot 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)
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.
What we work on
- Coloured basins
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Whole bathroom suites
- Coloured shower trays
Common problems we fix in Bentilee
Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and many are still sound. It’s normally the colour that dates them, not the condition.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- Faded or patchy colour
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- A suite that does not match a new bathroom
Before you book anyone
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
- What aftercare is recommended
- If travel is included in the price
- What preparation is included
Should you replace it?
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. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Why book with us
- Usually one visit, start to finish
- We come to you, anywhere in the UK
- A fixed quote before booking
- No need to remove anything
