Coloured Bath Resurfacing in Berrynarbor
Our repair technicians come to Berrynarbor for resurfacing coloured baths, basins and trays in white. Everything is done in place, and the work is guaranteed.
- Resurfacing from £350
- A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
Can I fix it myself?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Berrynarbor
A full suite is typically done in one to two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. We’re often asked to fix a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and selling or letting a home with an old suite, across avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured shower trays and coloured basins.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will sort it. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Repair or replace in Berrynarbor?
Replacing a coloured suite means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing changes the colour without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Places near Berrynarbor
What else we do in Berrynarbor
Work for landlords and builders
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
What affects the price in Berrynarbor
Prices start from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The material
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book.
Getting a price from pictures
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Natural light rather than flash
- What it’s made of, if you know
- One picture of the entire suite
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job.

How do I get a price for coloured bath resurfacing in Berrynarbor?
Prices start from £350. Every job gets a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
What do you need from me?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
What happens on the day
There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take one to two days for a full suite, tidy-up included.
- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- 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
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
Ask for a price
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
