Coloured bath resurfacing in Coates without replacing anything
Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. A full suite is normally done in one to two days.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing turns it white without taking anything out. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Why book with us
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- One visit for most repairs
- Everything repaired in place
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
See our prices page and guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.
What coloured bath resurfacing costs
Resurfacing from £350. There’s no area surcharge for Coates. What changes the price is:
- The colour and finish to match
- Doing more than one item at once
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The material and finish
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
How to get a fixed quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Natural light rather than flash
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- One picture of the whole suite
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.
How the visit works
We begin by going over the job with you. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. It normally takes a day or two, depending on how many items, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.
- The room is protected and ventilated.
- We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
- 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.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Open a window if you can
- Clear the area around the damage
Ask for a price
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job.

DIY kit or professional repair?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
When a repair isn’t the answer
We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- 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 will tell you honestly before booking.
Materials we work on in Coates
- Whole bathroom suites
- Coloured basins
- Coloured shower trays
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
