Coloured bath resurfacing in Gosmore without replacing anything
Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. We work on whole bathroom suites, coloured shower trays and coloured basins, and people most often call us about a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and selling or letting a home with an old suite.
Every job is backed 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.

How the visit works
There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take a day or two, depending on how many items, tidy-up included.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
- We leave everything to cure, normally until the following day.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Gosmore: your questions answered
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
How do I book?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Gosmore.
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
What happens if you find more damage?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote with dates.
Do you come to Gosmore?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Gosmore and the rest of Hertfordshire. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can a coloured bath be made white?
Yes. We resurface it in white with it left in place.
DIY kit or professional repair?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

How we price coloured bath resurfacing
Prices start from £350. There’s no area surcharge for Gosmore. The price reflects:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The material and finish
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The size and number of damaged areas
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Send pictures for a quote
You can take the pictures on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- A wider photo showing the entire suite
- The material, if you know it
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.
What we’re called out for in Gosmore
Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. The problem is normally the colour, not the bath.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- A suite that does not match a new bathroom
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- Faded or patchy colour
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
What your quote should include
- How soon you can use it again
- Who turns up on the day
- What aftercare is recommended
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a coloured suite means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white changes the colour with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Why choose Surface Doctor in Gosmore
- Usually one visit, start to finish
- We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
