Coloured Bath Resurfacing for Durkar homes
We travel to Durkar for resurfacing coloured baths, basins and trays in white. Everything is done in place, and the work is guaranteed.
- Resurfacing from £350
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- A suite that does not match a new bathroom
Coloured bath resurfacing in Durkar without replacing anything
A full suite is normally done in one to two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. Our technicians work on avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured shower trays and coloured basins, and common reasons people get in touch are selling or letting a home with an old suite and faded or patchy colour.
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: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Questions from Durkar
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and you’ll get one combined price.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
What about the toilet?
Ask us. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we will advise honestly before quoting.
What happens after I send photos?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
Which areas do you work in?
We work UK-wide, and that includes Durkar. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Can a coloured bath be made white?
Yes. We resurface it in white with it left in place.

Should you replace it?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing turns it white without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.
Why us?
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- Straight answers about what a repair can do
- No extra charge for your area
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface

What coloured bath resurfacing costs
Prices start from £350. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. These are the things that affect it:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether we combine several jobs
- What kind of damage it is
- How much damage there is
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Getting a price from pictures
You can generally get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A wider photo showing the whole suite
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole suite, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
For landlords and businesses
For anyone letting property in or around Durkar, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we will price them together.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
What we do, step by step
You do not need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. It generally takes one to two days for a full suite, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- Each item is left to cure, typically ready the next day.
Preparing for the visit
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
How to get a price
There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

What we’re called out for in Durkar
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. It’s usually the colour that dates them, not the condition.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- A suite that does not match a new bathroom
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- Faded or patchy colour
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
What your quote should include
- How the room is protected while they work
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- Who turns up on the day
- What prep work is covered
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
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.
