About our coloured bath resurfacing in Filton
Most suites take one or two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. If you are dealing with a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and selling or letting a home with an old suite, we can usually put it right.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll sort it. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

What we do, step by step
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take a day or two, depending on how many items, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Next we degrease everything and fix 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, usually ready the day after.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a coloured suite involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white turns it white without taking anything out. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. 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.

Your questions about coloured bath resurfacing in Filton
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Do you charge for travel?
We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
How do I book?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Can a coloured bath be made white?
Yes. We resurface it in white with it left in place.

When a repair isn’t the answer
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.
Materials we repair
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Whole bathroom suites
- Coloured basins
- Coloured shower trays
Landlord and trade work in Filton
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Filton use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
What coloured bath resurfacing costs
Prices start from £350. We don’t charge extra for travel to Filton. The price comes down to:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The type of damage
- Whether we combine several jobs
- What the surface is made of
Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Send pictures for a quote
You can take the pictures on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Where you are, by postcode
- The material, if you know it
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job the same day in most cases.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
