Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Ford
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 basins, and common reasons people get in touch are a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and faded or patchy colour.
You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- How many items we do on one visit
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- What the surface is made of
- How hard the colour is to match
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.
Send photos for a quote
When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- The material, if you know it
- Natural light rather than flash
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire suite, we can price the job.
Honest limits
In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not 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)
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.
What we work on
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Coloured basins
- Coloured shower trays
- Whole bathroom suites
The process
When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a day or two, depending on how many items. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.
- 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 on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
- Once cured, normally by the next day, the suite is ready.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
Getting a price
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.
Advice
What else we do in Ford
Work for landlords and builders
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.
Do you need coloured bath resurfacing in Ford?
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and many are still sound. It’s normally the colour that dates them, not the condition.
Most people contact us when they notice something like this:
- A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- Faded or patchy colour
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
Questions to ask before booking
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- How the room is protected while they work
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- How changes to the job are handled
Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white turns it white with everything left in place. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
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. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
Questions from Ford
How much does coloured bath resurfacing cost in Ford?
Prices start from £350. Every job gets a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item with your HP17 postcode.
Is it worth repairing rather 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.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Will there be a smell?
Expect a mild smell while we are working, which fades afterwards.
What happens after I send photos?
We come back with a fixed price, plus dates. You are under no obligation.
What do you need from me?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
