Trusted coloured bath resurfacing in Donkey Town

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a coloured suite involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white changes the colour without taking anything out. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Coloured bath resurfacing in Donkey Town, done in place

Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. A full suite is typically done in one to two days. Our repair technicians work on whole bathroom suites, avocado, pampas and pink baths and coloured shower trays, and common reasons people contact us are faded or patchy colour and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

How the visit works

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for a day or two, depending on how many items from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and how to care for it.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
  3. We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
  5. Once cured, normally by the day after, the suite is ready.

Before we arrive

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

DIY repairs versus a professional job

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Donkey Town

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

When we would advise against a repair

A repair is not right for every job, for example:

  • 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.

Surfaces we repair

  • Whole bathroom suites
  • Coloured shower trays
  • Coloured basins
  • Avocado, pampas and pink baths

Prices and what affects them

Resurfacing from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Donkey Town. The price reflects:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How much damage there is
  • 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, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Send pictures for a quote

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • A wider photo showing the whole suite
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Details of any past repairs

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
