Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Chale Green
We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. We work on whole bathroom suites, coloured shower trays and coloured basins, and people most often call us about a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and selling or letting a home with an old suite.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Chale Green and across Isle of Wight. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

What coloured bath resurfacing costs
Prices start from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The material
- How much damage there is
- The type of damage
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.
Getting a price from photos
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A wider photo showing the whole suite
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
Honest limits
It helps to know what we cannot do too:
- 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)
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Coloured basins
- Whole bathroom suites
- Coloured shower trays
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
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.
What happens on the day
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you are not left guessing. Once we are there, the work takes one to two days for a full suite for most jobs. The room is left tidy and you will know when it can be used.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- The surface is prepared and primed.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- Once cured, normally by the next day, the suite is ready.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Keep a parking space free if you can
How to get a price
There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Common questions in Chale Green
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Can you quote from photos?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
What about the toilet?
Ask us. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we will advise honestly before quoting.
How do I book?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.
Can a coloured bath be made white?
Yes. We resurface it in white with it left in place.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across Isle of Wight.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a coloured suite involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white turns it white without taking anything out. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. 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.
