About our coloured bath resurfacing in Elrig
Most suites take one or two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. If you are dealing with selling or letting a home with an old suite and faded or patchy colour, we can help, whatever the material.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once we’ve gone. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

DIY kit or professional repair?
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.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
What a repair cannot fix
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can 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)
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

What else we do in Elrig
Should you replace it?

Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Elrig. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

When to call us in Elrig
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and many are still sound. The problem is typically the colour, not the bath.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
- Faded or patchy colour
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- How the room is protected while they work
- What prep work is covered
- Whether a trained technician does the job
Your questions about coloured bath resurfacing in Elrig
Are you accredited?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Can you quote from photos?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.
What happens next?
You’ll get a fixed quote back. There is no obligation to book.
Are there extra charges for Elrig?
We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Do you come to Elrig?
We do. Repair technicians travel to Elrig from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
What coloured bath resurfacing costs
Resurfacing from £350. We don’t charge extra for travel to Elrig. The price comes down to:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The type of damage
- The material and finish
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book.
Send pictures for a quote
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:
- The material, if you know it
- A wider photo showing the whole suite
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Something in shot to show the size
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire suite, we can price the job the same day in most cases.
Work for landlords and builders
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Elrig as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
How the visit works
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you’re not left guessing. Once we are there, the work takes one to two days for a full suite for most jobs. We leave the room clean.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
- The surface is prepared and primed.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- We leave everything to cure, typically until the next day.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
How to get a price
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.
