Coloured bath resurfacing in Charles, done in place
Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. Typical jobs include selling or letting a home with an old suite and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, across coloured shower trays, coloured basins and avocado, pampas and pink baths.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

What happens on the day
Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Plan for one to two days for a full suite from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- The room is protected and ventilated.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
- Once cured, normally by the following day, the suite is ready.
Getting ready for the visit
- Make sure the area is dry
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Have a window or extractor fan available

Landlords, agents and businesses in Charles
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Charles use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
What coloured bath resurfacing costs
Prices start from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:
- The material and finish
- How many areas need work
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Send photos for a quote
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Natural light rather than flash
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A wider photo showing the whole suite
Most clients in Charles get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Repair or replace: which is better?
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. Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
What you get with us
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited
- No need to remove anything
- Most jobs done in one visit
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface

Can I fix it myself?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

Are there extra charges for Charles?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
