How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Gospel Oak
Most suites take one or two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. We regularly repair coloured shower trays, coloured basins and whole bathroom suites, and people most frequently call us about faded or patchy colour and selling or letting a home with an old suite.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

The process
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. Allow one to two days for a full suite.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- The surface is prepared and primed.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- Once cured, normally by the day after, the suite is ready.
Preparing for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Greater London and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
Repair or replace in Gospel Oak?
Replacing a coloured suite means 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. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

What coloured bath resurfacing costs
Prices start from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:
- The material
- How hard the colour is to match
- Access to the area
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Getting a price from photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- The material, if you know it
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- One picture of the entire suite
- Something in shot to show the size
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Your questions about coloured bath resurfacing in Gospel Oak
What about the toilet?
Talk to us first. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we’ll advise honestly before quoting.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across Greater London.
Can a coloured bath be made white?
Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.
Do you come to Gospel Oak?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Gospel Oak and the rest of Greater London. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
What happens next?
We come back with a fixed quote. You’re under no obligation.
Is there any odour?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
What we can’t put right
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)
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.
What we work on
- Whole bathroom suites
- Coloured basins
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Coloured shower trays
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
