Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Harwell
Most suites take one or two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. We are often asked to fix selling or letting a home with an old suite and faded or patchy colour, on coloured basins, avocado, pampas and pink baths and whole bathroom suites.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

How the visit works
We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes one to two days for a full suite, and we leave the room as we found it.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- 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.
- We leave everything to cure, normally until the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Ensure the area is dry
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
How to get a price
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’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
Advice
Can I fix it myself?
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.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
Common questions in Harwell
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
How much does coloured bath resurfacing cost in Harwell?
Prices start from £350. Every job gets a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your OX11 postcode.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send pictures.
How do I book?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Can tenants book a repair?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.

How we price coloured bath resurfacing
Prices start from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How hard the colour is to match
- What kind of damage it is
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed quote
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- One picture of the whole suite
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole suite, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a coloured suite means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing turns it white with everything left in place. Prices start from £350. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Harwell. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

- Colour-matched on site

For landlords and businesses
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Oxfordshire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
