Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Bristol

Most suites take one or two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there is no plumbing or tiling. We are frequently asked to fix faded or patchy colour and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, on coloured basins, coloured shower trays and whole bathroom suites.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will come back. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Landlord and trade work in Bristol

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details.

How it works

Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job 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.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
  5. We leave everything to cure, typically until the next day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Open a window if you can
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Ask for a price

Send us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your BS5 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a coloured suite involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing changes the colour without taking anything out. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Bristol. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

What you get with us

  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Same prices wherever you are

Questions from Bristol

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

How quickly can you book me in?

We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

How do I get a price for coloured bath resurfacing in Bristol?

Prices start from £350. Every job gets a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your BS5 postcode.

What areas do you cover?

The whole UK, including all of Bristol. Send your postcode with your photos and we will confirm dates.

Will you leave a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Do you charge for travel?

There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

When a repair isn’t the answer

We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • 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)

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

Materials we work on in Bristol

  • Coloured basins
  • Whole bathroom suites
  • Coloured shower trays
  • Avocado, pampas and pink baths

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: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

Do you need coloured bath resurfacing in Bristol?

Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and many are still sound. It’s typically the colour that dates them, not the condition.

People normally call us after spotting one of these:

  • A suite that does not 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

Before booking anyone

  • How soon you can use it again
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • What happens if they find more damage

How to compare quotes

What affects the price in Bristol

Prices start from £350. We do not charge extra for travel to Bristol. The price depends on:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • Access to the area
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Doing more than one item at once

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Quotes from your photos

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • One picture of the entire suite
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.
