We travel to Furneux Pelham for resurfacing coloured baths, basins and trays in white. Nothing is taken out, with a one-year guarantee.

DIY kit or professional repair?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Furneux Pelham
Most suites take one or two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Whether it’s selling or letting a home with an old suite and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, we can generally put it right, on whole bathroom suites, avocado, pampas and pink baths and coloured shower trays alike.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Furneux Pelham and across Hertfordshire. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Common questions in Furneux Pelham
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
Can you do the toilet too?
Ask us. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we’ll advise honestly before quoting.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
What areas do you cover?
We work UK-wide. Prices don’t change with location.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
What does coloured bath resurfacing cost?
Prices start from £350. We give a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

What else we do in Furneux Pelham
Work for landlords and builders
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
What coloured bath resurfacing costs
Prices start from £350. We don’t charge extra for travel to Furneux Pelham. The price comes down to:
- What the surface is made of
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The colour and finish to match
- The type of damage
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.
Quotes from your pictures
You can take the pictures on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Make sure they show:
- The material, if you know it
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A picture taken from further back
If you are in Furneux Pelham and want a price, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
When a repair isn’t the answer
We won’t take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- 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 before you book.

Repairing versus replacing in Furneux Pelham
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white turns it white with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book.

The process
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job generally takes one to two days for a full suite. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.
- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
- The surface is prepared and primed.
- We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
- Once cured, normally by the following day, the suite is ready.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
Getting a price
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
