Coloured bath resurfacing in Griston without replacing anything
Most suites take one or two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there is no plumbing or tiling. We are frequently asked to fix a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and selling or letting a home with an old suite, across coloured basins, whole bathroom suites and coloured shower trays.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

How we price coloured bath resurfacing
Prices start from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Doing more than one item at once
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- What the surface is made of
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Getting a price from photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Details of any past repairs
- A picture taken from further back
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire suite, we can price the job.
Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing turns it white with everything left in place. Prices start from £350. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper 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.
Do you need coloured bath resurfacing in Griston?
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. The problem is usually the colour, not the bath.
Look out for any of the following:
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- Faded or patchy colour
- A suite that does not match a new bathroom
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
Before booking anyone
- How your room will be protected
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- If travel is included in the price
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
When we would advise against a repair
We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot 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)
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
Materials we repair
- Coloured basins
- Coloured shower trays
- Whole bathroom suites
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths

Griston questions
Will the price change on the day?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
Do you cover Griston?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Griston. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
What about the toilet?
Ask us. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we’ll tell you what will last.
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Are there extra charges for Griston?
There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- The surface is prepared and primed.
- The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
- Once cured, normally by the following day, the suite is ready.
How to prepare
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Let us know if it has been repaired before

Landlords, agents and businesses in Griston
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
