Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Buckden
Most suites take one or two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. Common call-outs are for faded or patchy colour and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, in avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured basins and coloured shower trays.
In a place the size of Buckden, we’re normally working in a family home or a bungalow. A chip, rust spot or worn surface is repaired in a single visit, with the bath back in use soon after.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we will come back. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Common questions in Buckden
I let a flat near Huntingdon station. Can you help between tenants?
Yes, we often work between tenancies, and several addresses can be quoted together.
My house in Buckden is a period property. Is the original worth keeping?
In most cases: original pieces are often better made and harder to replace. We will give you an honest view from photos.
Do you work in Buckden?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Buckden from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
How do I book?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Can you turn my avocado bath white?
Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.
Can you quote from pictures?
In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

How we price coloured bath resurfacing
Resurfacing from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- What the surface is made of
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Send pictures for a quote
Two or three clear pictures are typically enough. It helps if you send:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A wider photo showing the whole suite
We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.
Should you replace it?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white turns it white with everything left in place. For a home around Buckden where the suite is sound, replacing it is rarely worth the cost and disruption.
Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

The process
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. It usually takes one to two days for a full suite, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work. For a home in Buckden, we normally park close by and start immediately.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- 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, typically ready the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know about parking or access
- Clear the area around the damage
- Let us know which floor the room is on
Ask for a price
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We’ll say straight away whether it can be repaired.
Advice
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. 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.
For landlords and businesses
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Buckden as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
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.
Honest limits
We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:
- 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 pictures and we will say what we think.
What we work on
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Whole bathroom suites
- Coloured basins
- Coloured shower trays
Common problems we fix in Buckden
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. It’s usually the colour that dates them, not the condition.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- Faded or patchy colour
If you live in one of the older homes near a church such as Parish Church of St Mary, it may still have its original cast iron bath, which is well worth repairing or re-enamelling rather than replacing.
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- How the colour is matched
- What protection goes down before work starts
- Aftercare advice
