What coloured bath resurfacing costs
Resurfacing from £350. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. This is what makes a difference:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How many items we do on one visit
We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Quotes from your pictures
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole suite, we can price the job without visiting.
Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Greengates
Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. If you are dealing with a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and selling or letting a home with an old suite, we can help, on coloured basins, whole bathroom suites and coloured shower trays alike.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a coloured suite involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing turns it white with everything left in place. Prices start from £350. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

Common questions in Greengates
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
How do I book?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
What happens after I send pictures?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.
When can you do it?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
Do you charge for travel?
There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
What a repair can’t fix
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- 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.
What we work on
- Coloured basins
- Coloured shower trays
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Whole bathroom suites
DIY repairs versus a professional job
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
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.
Common problems we fix in Greengates
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.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- A suite that does not match a new bathroom
- Faded or patchy colour
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
Before booking anyone
- When it can be used again
- Whether they match the colour on site
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- How changes to the job are handled
How the visit works
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. It generally takes a day or two, depending on how many items, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- 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.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- We leave everything to cure, normally until the day after.
Before we arrive
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
