Coloured bath resurfacing across Carr Hill and nearby, normally in one visit.
- Resurfacing from £350

Work for landlords and builders
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Carr Hill
A full suite is typically done in one to two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. We work on whole bathroom suites, coloured basins and avocado, pampas and pink baths, and common reasons people contact us are faded or patchy colour and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Carr Hill: your questions answered
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send photos.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
What information do you need?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
What about the toilet?
Ask us. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we’ll advise honestly before quoting.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Signs you need coloured bath resurfacing in Carr Hill

- A suite that does not match a new bathroom
- Faded or patchy colour
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite

Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing turns it white with everything left in place. Prices start from £350. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Carr Hill. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

How we price coloured bath resurfacing
Prices start from £350. There’s no area surcharge for Carr Hill. The price reflects:
- What the surface is made of
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How many areas need work
- What kind of damage it is
Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
How to get a fixed quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Where you are, by postcode
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- The material, if you know it
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
How it works
We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a day or two, depending on how many items, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
- We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
- Each item is left to cure, normally ready the following day.
How to prepare
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
How to get a price
