About our coloured bath resurfacing in Foxhole
We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. We’re often asked to fix a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and faded or patchy colour, across whole bathroom suites, avocado, pampas and pink baths and coloured shower trays.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Foxhole questions
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Can you do the toilet too?
Talk to us first. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we’ll tell you what will last.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
What happens next?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Usually, yes. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.
Will there be a smell?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
How the visit works
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, then carry out the work, which generally takes a day or two, depending on how many items. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.
- 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.
- Each item is left to cure, normally ready the next day.
Preparing for the visit
- Ensure the area is dry
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Let us know which floor the room is on
How to get a price
Send us a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, with your NR15 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Foxhole
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Foxhole use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.
Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. We don’t charge extra for travel to Foxhole. The price depends on:
- What kind of damage it is
- What the surface is made of
- How many areas need work
- 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 you book, with nothing added on the day.
Quotes from your photos
You can normally get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A wider photo showing the entire suite
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Where you are, by postcode
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a coloured suite involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white turns it white without taking anything out. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
