Coloured bath resurfacing for Highcliffe homes

Coloured bath resurfacing in Highcliffe 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. We regularly repair coloured basins, avocado, pampas and pink baths and coloured shower trays, and common reasons people get in touch are a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and selling or letting a home with an old suite.

Every job is backed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Repairing versus replacing in Highcliffe

Replacing a coloured suite involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white changes the colour without taking anything out. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

How the visit works

Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a day or two, depending on how many items, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
  3. We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
  5. Each item is left to cure, typically ready the next day.

Before we arrive

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Ask for 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 will get a fixed figure back.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A DIY attempt is not 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.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

When we’d advise against a repair

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t 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)

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

Surfaces we repair

  • Coloured shower trays
  • Avocado, pampas and pink baths
  • Coloured basins
  • Whole bathroom suites

  • Selling or letting a home with an old suite
  • A suite that does not match a new bathroom
  • Faded or patchy colour
  • A dated coloured suite you’d like in white

What to look for in a quote

How to compare quotes

What coloured bath resurfacing costs

Prices start from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How much damage there is

Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Getting a price from pictures

You can usually get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Any details about the material

Upload pictures of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Highcliffe, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
