How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Hawkenbury
Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. We regularly repair coloured basins, coloured shower trays and whole bathroom suites, and people most often call us about a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Hawkenbury as everywhere else we work. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
Common questions in Hawkenbury
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Can a coloured bath be made white?
Yes. We resurface it in white with it left in place.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.
What happens after I send photos?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Advice
What coloured bath resurfacing costs
Prices start from £350. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The colour and finish to match
- Access to the area
- What the surface is made of
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.
Quotes from your photos
Phone photos are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a coloured suite involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white changes the colour with everything left in place. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.
