About our coloured bath resurfacing in Fen Ditton
Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there is no plumbing or tiling. A full suite is typically done in one to two days. We’re often asked to fix a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, in coloured basins, coloured shower trays and whole bathroom suites.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

How we price coloured bath resurfacing
Resurfacing from £350. We give every job a fixed price from photos. This is what makes a difference:
- What the surface is made of
- How hard the colour is to match
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book.
Quotes from your pictures
You can take the photos on your phone. Make sure they show:
- Any details about the material
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A wider photo showing the whole suite
- Where you are, by postcode
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
Fen Ditton questions
How do I book?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
Can you do the toilet too?
Ask us. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we’ll advise honestly before quoting.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Do you cover Fen Ditton?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Fen Ditton and the rest of Cambridgeshire. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Can a coloured bath be made white?
Yes. We resurface it in white with it left in place.
What does coloured bath resurfacing cost?
Prices start from £350. Every job gets a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your CB5 postcode.
Are there extra charges for Fen Ditton?
We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.
