Coloured bath resurfacing in Gerrards Cross, done in place
A full suite is generally done in one to two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. Our repair technicians work on avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured basins and coloured shower trays, and common reasons people get in touch are selling or letting a home with an old suite and faded or patchy colour.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Gerrards Cross and across Buckinghamshire. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a coloured suite involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white changes the colour without taking anything out. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Gerrards Cross. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Can I fix it myself?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Gerrards Cross
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.
How it works
We agree an arrival time beforehand. On site, it takes a day or two, depending on how many items for most jobs. The room is left tidy and you’ll know when it can be used.
- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
- We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
- Once cured, normally by the following day, the suite is ready.
How to prepare
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
Getting a price

What coloured bath resurfacing costs
Resurfacing from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- The material
- How many items we do on one visit
- How much damage there is
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Quotes from your photos
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Something in shot to show the size
- Details of any past repairs
- A photo taken from further back
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
Common questions in Gerrards Cross
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Normally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Can tenants book a repair?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
What happens after I send photos?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.
Do you come to Gerrards Cross?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Gerrards Cross. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Which areas do you work in?
We work UK-wide, so Gerrards Cross is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.
What we can’t put right
A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:
- 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 pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.
What we work on
- Coloured basins
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
