About our coloured bath resurfacing in Donhead St Andrew
Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there is no plumbing or tiling. A full suite is typically done in one to two days. If you’re dealing with a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and faded or patchy colour, we can typically put it right, on coloured basins, avocado, pampas and pink baths and coloured shower trays alike.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Repair or replace in Donhead St Andrew?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing changes the colour with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Why us?
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- No extra charge for your area
- A fixed quote before you book
- Nothing taken out or refitted
Take a look at our prices page or resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
When we would advise against a repair
It helps to know what we can’t do:
- 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’ll tell you honestly.
Materials we repair
- Whole bathroom suites
- Coloured shower trays
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Coloured basins
Work for landlords and builders
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
What coloured bath resurfacing costs
Resurfacing from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- What the surface is made of
- How many items we do on one visit
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How hard the colour is to match
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Getting a price from pictures
When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- One picture of the entire suite
- Any details about the material
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
Email us a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, with your SP7 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Common questions in Donhead St Andrew
What happens after I send pictures?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Can you turn my avocado bath white?
Yes. We resurface it in white with it left in place.
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Do you come to Donhead St Andrew?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Donhead St Andrew from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
