Coloured bath resurfacing for Brookthorpe homes

Can I fix it myself?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Brookthorpe

Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. A full suite is generally done in one to two days. If you’re dealing with a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and faded or patchy colour, we can normally put it right, on whole bathroom suites, coloured basins and coloured shower trays alike.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Repairing versus replacing in Brookthorpe

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing turns it white without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Read our prices page and resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.

When a repair isn’t the answer

We will not take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot 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’ll say what we think.

What we work on

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

Work for landlords and builders

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Brookthorpe use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

What happens on the day

There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to one to two days for a full suite, tidy-up included.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
  5. We leave everything to cure, typically until the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Getting a price

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.

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.

Quotes from your photos

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • Natural light rather than flash
