About our coloured bath resurfacing in Clayhall
Most suites take one or two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. Our repair technicians work on whole bathroom suites, coloured shower trays and coloured basins, and common reasons people contact us are a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and faded or patchy colour.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

How the visit works
You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and start once you’re happy with the plan. Most jobs take a day or two, depending on how many items, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
- We leave everything to cure, usually until the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Point us to the nearest place to park

DIY kit or professional repair?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing turns it white with everything left in place. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

What coloured bath resurfacing costs
Prices start from £350. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- Access to the area
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How many items we do on one visit
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
How to get a fixed quote
You can normally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Details of any past repairs
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Clayhall
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Letting agents frequently send us photos 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.
What we’re called out for in Clayhall
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and many are still sound. It’s normally the colour that dates them, not the condition.
Send us a picture if you notice any of these:
- Faded or patchy colour
- A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
What your quote should include
- What protection goes down before work starts
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- Whether the price covers travel
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
Common questions in Clayhall
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
When we’d advise against a repair
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- 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)
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Coloured shower trays
- Coloured basins
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Whole bathroom suites
