Coloured bath resurfacing in Bleatarn without replacing anything
Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. A full suite is generally done in one to two days. We’re often asked to fix a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and faded or patchy colour, in coloured shower trays, avocado, pampas and pink baths and coloured basins.
You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

What affects the price in Bleatarn
Resurfacing from £350. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- What the surface is made of
- How hard the colour is to match
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How many items we do on one visit
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
How to get a fixed price
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A photo taken from further back
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Where you are, by postcode
Send us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you are in Bleatarn, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
Work for landlords and builders
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.
For anyone letting property in or around Bleatarn, we will quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
The process
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. Once we’re there, the work takes one to two days for a full suite for most jobs. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.
- The room is protected and ventilated.
- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- The surface is prepared and primed.
- We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
- We leave everything to cure, generally until the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Let us know which floor the room is on

Questions from Bleatarn
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Typically, yes. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.
How quickly can you book me in?
We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing turns it white without taking anything out. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
