Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Broad Street

A full suite is normally done in one to two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Common call-outs are for a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and faded or patchy colour, across coloured shower trays, avocado, pampas and pink baths and whole bathroom suites.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once we’ve gone. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

DIY kit or professional repair?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Should you replace it?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing changes the colour without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Why Broad Street clients choose us

  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Work done at your home or business
  • Fixed prices from your pictures

How the visit works

We begin by going over the job with you. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. Allow a day or two, depending on how many items.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
  5. Each item is left to cure, typically ready the next day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Ensure the area is dry

What we are called out for in Broad Street

Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and many are still sound. The problem is usually the colour, not the bath.

Send us a photo if you notice any of these:

  • A suite that does not match a new bathroom
  • Faded or patchy colour
  • Selling or letting a home with an old suite
  • A dated coloured suite you’d like in white

Before booking anyone

  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • What prep work is covered
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long

How to compare quotes

Honest limits

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • 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 will give you a straight answer.

Surfaces we repair

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

FAQs for Broad Street

Is a repair better than a new one?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Is there any odour?

There can be some smell while we work. It clears as the materials cure.

How much does coloured bath resurfacing cost in Broad Street?

Resurfacing from £350. Every job gets a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item and your postcode.

What happens if you find more damage?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.

What about the toilet?

Ask us. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we will tell you what will last.

What do you need from me?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

What coloured bath resurfacing costs

Resurfacing from £350. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. These are the things that affect it:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Whether we combine several jobs

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Send pictures for a quote

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • One picture of the entire suite
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Any details about the material

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole suite, we can give you a fixed price without visiting.
