How we price coloured bath resurfacing

Prices start from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Dunbeg. What changes the price is:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How much damage there is

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.

How to get a fixed quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • Any details about the material
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A wider photo showing the whole suite
  • Something in shot to show the size

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

About our coloured bath resurfacing in Dunbeg

Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. We regularly repair coloured shower trays, coloured basins and avocado, pampas and pink baths, and people most frequently call us about a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and faded or patchy colour.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll come back. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

How it works

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a day or two, depending on how many items, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
  3. We prepare 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.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Make sure the area is dry

FAQs for Dunbeg

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

Do you come to Dunbeg?

We do. We send a technician to Dunbeg for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

What does coloured bath resurfacing cost?

Resurfacing from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

What happens next?

We come back with a fixed price, plus dates. There is no obligation to book.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a coloured suite involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white changes the colour without taking anything out. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

What you get with us

  • Work done at your home or business
  • Colour-matched on site
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • No extra charge for your area
