How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Dunwear
Most suites take one or two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. If you are dealing with a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and faded or patchy colour, we can generally put it right, on whole bathroom suites, coloured shower trays and avocado, pampas and pink baths alike.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

DIY kit or professional repair?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How hard the colour is to match
- How many areas need work
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Send photos for a quote
Phone photos are fine, there is no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- A wider photo showing the entire suite
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- One sharp close-up of the damage
To get a price, send two or three photos through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
What happens on the day
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes a day or two, depending on how many items, and we leave the room as we found it.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- The surface is prepared and primed.
- The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
- We leave everything to cure, typically until the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
Get a quote
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole suite, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a coloured suite involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing changes the colour without taking anything out. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
