Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Clap Hill
A full suite is generally done in one to two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. We are often asked to fix faded or patchy colour and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, on coloured shower trays, coloured basins and avocado, pampas and pink baths.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

For landlords and businesses
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
For anyone letting property in or around Clap Hill, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we will come back with a combined price.

Repairing versus replacing in Clap Hill
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white changes the colour without taking anything out. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

How it works
You do not need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. It usually takes one to two days for a full suite, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- 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 next day, the suite is ready.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Let us know about parking or access
- Let the surface dry out before the visit

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom

Clap Hill questions
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.
What about the toilet?
Ask us. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we will advise honestly before quoting.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.
Is there a guarantee?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
What we cannot put right
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- 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 photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Surfaces we repair
- Coloured shower trays
- Coloured basins
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Whole bathroom suites
What affects the price in Clap Hill
Resurfacing from £350. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- What the surface is made of
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Doing more than one item at once
We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
How to get a fixed quote
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Details of any past repairs
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- What it’s made of, if you know
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
