Coloured bath resurfacing in Bourton, done in place
A full suite is usually done in one to two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. Our repair technicians work on coloured shower trays, avocado, pampas and pink baths and coloured basins, and common reasons people get in touch are a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and faded or patchy colour.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Bourton questions
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Is there any odour?
There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.
Will the price change on the day?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Can you do the toilet too?
Talk to us first. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we’ll advise honestly before quoting.
Can you quote from pictures?
Usually, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
How do I book?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
How we price coloured bath resurfacing
Resurfacing from £350. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The material and finish
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How many areas need work
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Quotes from your photos
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Something in shot to show the size
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire suite, we can price the job.
When to call us in Bourton
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. The problem is normally the colour, not the bath.
Send us a photo if you notice any of these:
- A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- Faded or patchy colour
What your quote should include
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- Who turns up on the day
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- When it can be used again
When we would advise against a repair
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- 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)
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.
Materials we repair
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Whole bathroom suites
- Coloured shower trays

Can I fix it myself?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. 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 photos.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
How it works
We turn up when we said we would and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take one to two days for a full suite, and we leave the room as we found it.
- The room is protected and ventilated.
- 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.
- Each item is left to cure, normally ready the next day.
Before we arrive
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
How to get a price
There’s 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 reply with a fixed price.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
