Coloured bath resurfacing in Forty Green, done in place
A full suite is typically done in one to two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. Whether it’s faded or patchy colour and selling or letting a home with an old suite, we can generally put it right, on avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured shower trays and whole bathroom suites alike.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we will come back. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, 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 often lifts.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

Honest limits
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)
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Advice
What coloured bath resurfacing costs
Prices start from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- Doing more than one item at once
- How many areas need work
- Access to the area
- Unusual colours or finishes
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed price
When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A wider photo showing the whole suite
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a coloured suite means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white changes the colour without taking anything out. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Work for landlords and builders
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Forty Green use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
