Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Cottisford
Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. A full suite is generally done in one to two days. We work on avocado, pampas and pink baths, whole bathroom suites and coloured basins, and common reasons people contact us are a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and selling or letting a home with an old suite.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Cottisford as everywhere else we work. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
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 the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
FAQs for Cottisford
What do you need from me?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.
Can you do the toilet too?
Talk to us first. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we will tell you what will last.
Can you turn my avocado bath white?
Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.
How much does coloured bath resurfacing cost in Cottisford?
Prices start from £350. Every job gets a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item and your postcode.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
What areas do you cover?
All of Northamptonshire, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.
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.
For landlords and businesses
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Northamptonshire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
What a repair can’t fix
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- 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 photos and we will say what we think before booking.
Materials we work on in Cottisford

Should you replace it?
Replacing a coloured suite involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing turns it white with everything left in place. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

The process
We turn up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes one to two days for a full suite, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
- We leave everything to cure, usually until the next day.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
How to get a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire suite, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
