About our coloured bath resurfacing in Fernwood
We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. We work on whole bathroom suites, avocado, pampas and pink baths and coloured shower trays, and people most often call us about faded or patchy colour and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Fernwood as everywhere else we work. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

What we do, step by step
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take one to two days for a full suite.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
- Once cured, normally by the next day, the suite is ready.
Before we arrive
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
How to get a price
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.
Advice
What a repair cannot fix
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- 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’ll give you a straight answer.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Nottinghamshire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Your questions about coloured bath resurfacing in Fernwood
How do I book?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
What happens next?
We come back with a fixed price, plus dates. There is no obligation to book.
Do you cover the entire of Nottinghamshire?
We cover the whole UK, including Fernwood and the rest of Nottinghamshire. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.
Can a coloured bath be made white?
Yes. We resurface it in white with it left in place.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- Doing more than one item at once
- How hard the colour is to match
- What kind of damage it is
- How many areas need work
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.
Quotes from your photos
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- Any details about the material
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Natural light rather than flash
- Something in shot to show the size
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
