Coloured bath resurfacing in Chipping Ongar, done in place
Most suites take one or two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. Our repair technicians work on avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured basins and whole bathroom suites, and common reasons people get in touch are faded or patchy colour and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Chipping Ongar and across Essex. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
The process
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take 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.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
- We leave everything to cure, normally until the day after.
Before we arrive
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Clear the area around the damage
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Should you replace it?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white turns it white with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Chipping Ongar. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Why book with us
- Colour-matched on site
- Generally one visit, start to finish
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish

Chipping Ongar: your questions answered
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
Are there extra charges for Chipping Ongar?
We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Is there any odour?
There may be a mild smell during the work.
Can you turn my avocado bath white?
Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.
Can pets and children be at home?
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.

What affects the price in Chipping Ongar
Resurfacing from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How many items we do on one visit
- How hard the colour is to match
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book.
How to get a fixed price
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.
Landlord and trade work in Chipping Ongar
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Chipping Ongar use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.
Honest limits
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- 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)
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
