How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Coldblow
We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. We’re frequently asked to fix a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and faded or patchy colour, in avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured basins and coloured shower trays.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Coldblow as everywhere else we work. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

What happens on the day
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take one to two days for a full suite, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- The room is protected and ventilated.
- We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
- We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- Once cured, normally by the following day, the suite is ready.
How to prepare
- Clear the area around the damage
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Open a window if you can

Coldblow questions
Do you come to Coldblow?
We do. We send a technician to Coldblow for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
What do you need from me?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Which areas do you work in?
We cover the whole UK, including Coldblow and the rest of Greater London. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll offer you dates.
What happens next?
We come back with a fixed price, plus dates. There’s no obligation to book.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and you will get one combined price.
Can I fix it myself?
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.
Quotes from your pictures
Phone pictures are fine, there is no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Something in shot to show the size
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
Send us pictures of the damage and one of the entire item, with your DA5 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
Common problems we fix in Coldblow
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and many are still sound. The problem is typically the colour, not the bath.
The most common problems we are called about are:
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- Faded or patchy colour
- A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
Comparing quotes
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- If travel is included in the price
- How to care for the finish
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a coloured suite involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white changes the colour with everything left in place. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
What you get with us
- A fixed quote before booking
- One-year guarantee on every repair
- We leave the room as we found it
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface

What we cannot put right
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- 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’ll say what we think before booking.
Materials we work on in Coldblow
- Coloured shower trays
- Coloured basins
