About our coloured bath resurfacing in Hale
A full suite is generally done in one to two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. We work on whole bathroom suites, coloured basins and avocado, pampas and pink baths, and the jobs we see most are faded or patchy colour and selling or letting a home with an old suite.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Hale as everywhere else we work. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
What a repair cannot fix
In fairness, some problems need a different 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)
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Whole bathroom suites
- Coloured shower trays
- Coloured basins
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
What we do, step by step
We begin by going over the job with you. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. Allow a day or two, depending on how many items, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.
- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
- We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
- Each item is left to cure, usually ready the day after.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Let us know about parking or access
- Have a window or extractor fan available

Advice
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a coloured suite involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white changes the colour without taking anything out. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Why us?
- No extra charge for your area
- Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
- Free fixed quotes from pictures
- Typically one visit, start to finish

Hale: your questions answered
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
What happens next?
You’ll get a fixed quote back, plus dates. You’re under no obligation.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. If photos do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.
Can a coloured bath be made white?
Yes. We resurface it in white with it left in place.
