Coloured suite to white in Henley, Dorset
Coloured bath resurfacing across Henley and nearby, done in a single visit in most cases.
- Resurfacing from £350
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
What affects the price in Henley
Resurfacing from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How many items we do on one visit
- What kind of damage it is
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
How to get a fixed price
You can take the photos on your phone. Just make sure we can see:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole suite, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
Coloured bath resurfacing in Henley without replacing anything
We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. A full suite is usually done in one to two days. Common call-outs are for a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and faded or patchy colour, on avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured shower trays and whole bathroom suites.
All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Repairing versus replacing in Henley
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. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Henley
Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
The process
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to one to two days for a full suite.
- The room is protected and ventilated.
- We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
- The surface is prepared and primed.
- We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
- We leave everything to cure, typically until the next day.
How to prepare
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
Getting a price
We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

Henley: your questions answered
How do I get a price for coloured bath resurfacing in Henley?
Resurfacing from £350. We give a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your DT2 postcode.
Can pets and children be at home?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We come back with a fixed price. You’re under no obligation.
Do you work in Henley?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Henley and the rest of Dorset. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.
What do you need from me?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
When a repair isn’t the answer
It helps to know what we can’t do:
- 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)
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.
Materials we repair
- Coloured shower trays
- Whole bathroom suites
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Coloured basins
