About our coloured bath resurfacing in Down Ampney
A full suite is normally done in one to two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Common call-outs are for faded or patchy colour and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, across coloured shower trays, coloured basins and whole bathroom suites.
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Gloucestershire. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

The process
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. Most jobs take a day or two, depending on how many items, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
- We leave everything to cure, usually until the following day.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Clear the area around the damage
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
How to get a price
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- What the surface is made of
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Getting a price from photos
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:
- A wider photo showing the whole suite
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Details of any past repairs
- Something in shot to show the size
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

Should you replace it?
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. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. 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.

Common questions in Down Ampney
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Can you quote from photos?
Nearly always. If pictures don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Are there extra charges for Down Ampney?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
How much does coloured bath resurfacing cost in Down Ampney?
Prices start from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before booking.
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.
Honest limits
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not 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 will tell you honestly.
Surfaces we repair
- Coloured shower trays
- Coloured basins
