Coloured Bath Resurfacing for Bradwell Abbey homes
Our technicians come to Bradwell Abbey for resurfacing coloured baths, basins and trays in white. Everything is done in place, and the work is guaranteed.
- Resurfacing from £350
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- A suite that does not match a new bathroom
DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
Coloured bath resurfacing in Bradwell Abbey without replacing anything
We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. A full suite is usually done in one to two days. We work on avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured shower trays and coloured basins, and people most frequently call us about a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and faded or patchy colour.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Bradwell Abbey: your questions answered
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.
What happens if you find more damage?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
Are there extra charges for Bradwell Abbey?
There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
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.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Is there a guarantee?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
When we’d advise against a repair
A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:
- 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 photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Surfaces we repair

What we do, step by step
We work cleanly and quietly. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes one to two days for a full suite. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- The room is protected and ventilated.
- We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
- We leave everything to cure, normally until the next day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Let us know which floor the room is on
Ask for a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.
Related advice
What coloured bath resurfacing costs
Resurfacing from £350. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Doing more than one item at once
- Access to the area
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.
Send pictures for a quote
Two or three clear pictures are normally enough. It helps if you send:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
To get a price, send a couple of pictures through our quote form or call us. We will say right away if a repair is the right fix.
For landlords and businesses
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.

When to call us in Bradwell Abbey
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and many are still sound. It’s generally the colour that dates them, not the condition.
Common reasons people in Bradwell Abbey contact 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 doesn’t match a new bathroom
Before booking anyone
- How to care for the finish
- When it can be used again
- How changes to the job are handled
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
Should you replace it?
Replacing a coloured suite means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white turns it white with everything left in place. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
