How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Coldharbour
Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. Whether it’s a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and selling or letting a home with an old suite, we can help, on coloured shower trays, coloured basins and whole bathroom suites alike.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

What we do, step by step
There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to a day or two, depending on how many items.
- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- The surface is prepared and primed.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- Each item is left to cure, normally ready the following day.
How to prepare
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a coloured suite involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing changes the colour without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Coldharbour: your questions answered
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Can a coloured bath be made white?
Yes. We resurface it in white with it left in place.
Will the price change on the day?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
Do the materials smell?
Expect a mild smell while we are working that clears as it cures.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
What coloured bath resurfacing costs
Prices start from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The material and finish
- How much damage there is
- What kind of damage it is
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
How to get a fixed quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:
- The material, if you know it
- Details of any past repairs
- One picture of the entire suite
- One sharp close-up of the damage
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
What we are called out for in Coldharbour
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. It’s typically the colour that dates them, not the condition.

- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- A suite that does not match a new bathroom
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
What to look for in a quote
- Who will actually do the work
- Whether they match the colour on site

- Fittings and taps (these are masked, not recoloured)
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.

- Coloured shower trays
- Coloured basins
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
For landlords and businesses

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
