About our coloured bath resurfacing in East Donyland
We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. Whether it’s selling or letting a home with an old suite and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, we can normally put it right, on avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured shower trays and whole bathroom suites alike.
Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

What coloured bath resurfacing costs
Prices start from £350. We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:
- How much damage there is
- The material and finish
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
How to get a fixed price
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- Details of any past repairs
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- One picture of the whole suite
- The material, if you know it
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire suite, we can price the job.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a coloured suite means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white changes the colour without taking anything out. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for East Donyland. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Why us?
- No extra charge for your area
- Most jobs done in one visit
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- We come to you, anywhere in the UK

What we cannot put right
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- 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)
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Whole bathroom suites
- Coloured shower trays
- Coloured basins

East Donyland questions
Can a coloured bath be made white?
Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
What areas do you cover?
All of Essex, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.
Can you do the toilet too?
Talk to us first. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we will tell you what will last.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
How do I get a price for coloured bath resurfacing in East Donyland?
Resurfacing from £350. We give a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your CO5 postcode.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
