Coloured Bath Resurfacing in Garway
Our repair technicians come to Garway for resurfacing coloured baths, basins and trays in white. Nothing is taken out, with a one-year guarantee.
- Resurfacing from £350

Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a coloured suite involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white changes the colour without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

What else we do in Garway
What affects the price in Garway
Prices start from £350. We do not charge extra for travel to Garway. The price depends on:
- What the surface is made of
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How much damage there is
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.
Quotes from your photos
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- What it’s made of, if you know
- One picture of the whole suite
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the suite, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
Your questions about coloured bath resurfacing in Garway
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Normally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Herefordshire.
Do you work in Garway?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Garway and the rest of Herefordshire. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can tenants book a repair?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
What does coloured bath resurfacing cost?
Resurfacing from £350. Every job gets a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item with your HR2 postcode.
Can I fix it myself?
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, then guarantee it for a year.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
How it works
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. Allow a day or two, depending on how many items, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
- We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- Once cured, normally by the following day, the suite is ready.
Before we arrive
- Let us know about parking or access
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Keep a parking space free if you can

Common problems we fix in Garway
Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. It’s generally the colour that dates them, not the condition.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- Faded or patchy colour
- A suite that does not match a new bathroom
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
What your quote should include
- Who turns up on the day
- When it can be used again
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- How to care for the finish
Work for landlords and builders
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
