How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Cumwhinton
A full suite is generally done in one to two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Typical jobs include faded or patchy colour and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, on avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured basins and coloured shower trays.
Every job is backed for twelve months in Cumwhinton and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Repair or replace in Cumwhinton?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white turns it white without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

If you manage property in Cumwhinton, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.
What a repair can’t fix
We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- 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)

Common problems we fix in Cumwhinton
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and many are still sound. The problem is normally the colour, not the bath.
You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:
- A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- Faded or patchy colour
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
Questions to ask before booking
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
- What aftercare is recommended
- How the room is protected while they work
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
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.
What affects the price in Cumwhinton
Prices start from £350. There’s no area surcharge for Cumwhinton. What changes the price is:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How many areas need work
- What the surface is made of
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.
Quotes from your photos
You can take the pictures on your phone. Ensure they show:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.
The process
We agree an arrival time beforehand. Once we’re there, the work takes a day or two, depending on how many items in most cases. We leave the room clean.
- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
- The surface is prepared and primed.
- The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
- We leave everything to cure, generally until the day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
