How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Grimstone End
Most suites take one or two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. We work on coloured basins, avocado, pampas and pink baths and coloured shower trays, and common reasons people get in touch are faded or patchy colour and selling or letting a home with an old suite.
You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

How it works
We turn up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes one to two days for a full suite, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- The room is protected and ventilated.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
- Each item is left to cure, typically ready the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear the area around the damage
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
Ask for a price
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
Related advice
DIY kit or professional repair?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- The material
- Access to the area
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The colour and finish to match
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Quotes from your photos
Two or three clear photos are typically enough. It helps if you send:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Natural light rather than flash
- A wider photo showing the entire suite
Send us a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Grimstone End, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
