Coloured bath resurfacing in Berkeley, done in place
A full suite is normally done in one to two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. We’re frequently asked to fix selling or letting a home with an old suite and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, in coloured shower trays, avocado, pampas and pink baths and whole bathroom suites.
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Your questions about coloured bath resurfacing in Berkeley
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Do you work in Berkeley?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Berkeley for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
What information do you need?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Can you quote from pictures?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.

For landlords and businesses
Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing turns it white with everything left in place. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

How we price coloured bath resurfacing
Resurfacing from £350. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- How hard the colour is to match
- How many items we do on one visit
- What the surface is made of
- How many areas need work
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.
Send photos for a quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Where you are, by postcode
- One picture of the whole suite
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
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’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
Can I fix it myself?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
The process
Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes one to two days for a full suite, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
- Once cured, normally by the following day, the suite is ready.
Preparing for the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Let us know which floor the room is on
Ask for a price
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

- Fittings and taps (these are masked, not recoloured)
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.
