Coloured bath resurfacing in High Street without replacing anything
A full suite is normally done in one to two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. Our repair technicians work on coloured shower trays, coloured basins and whole bathroom suites, and people most frequently call us about a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and faded or patchy colour.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

What affects the price in High Street
Prices start from £350. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The material and finish
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
How to get a fixed quote
When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Any details about the material
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.
Common problems we fix in High Street

Questions from High Street
What about the toilet?
Ask us. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we will tell you what will last.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Is there a call-out fee?
There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
What happens next?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
Can a coloured bath be made white?
Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.
Will the price change on the day?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Are you accredited?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Repairing versus replacing in High Street
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white changes the colour with everything left in place. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

What we do, step by step
Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Allow a day or two, depending on how many items. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- 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.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
How to get a price
Send us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your PL26 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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 frequently lifts.
