Coloured Bath Resurfacing for Guilden Sutton homes
Fixed-price coloured bath resurfacing in Guilden Sutton and the surrounding area, normally in one visit and guaranteed for a year.
- Resurfacing from £350
- A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
- Faded or patchy colour

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Guilden Sutton
Most suites take one or two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. Whether it’s a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, we can help, whatever the material.
All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

For landlords and businesses
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
How we price coloured bath resurfacing
Resurfacing from £350. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- What kind of damage it is
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Access to the area
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
How to get a fixed quote
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Details of any past repairs
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- One picture of the entire suite
There’s no need for us to visit first. 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.
What a repair cannot fix
A repair is not right for every job, for example:
- 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.
Materials we work on in Guilden Sutton

Your questions about coloured bath resurfacing in Guilden Sutton
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Do you come to Guilden Sutton?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Guilden Sutton and the rest of Cheshire West and Chester. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
How do I get a price for coloured bath resurfacing in Guilden Sutton?
Prices start from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.
What happens after I send pictures?
You’ll get a fixed quote back. There’s no obligation to book.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a coloured suite involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing changes the colour with everything left in place. Prices start from £350. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
- We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- Each item is left to cure, typically ready the next day.
