How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Hillclifflane
We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. A full suite is normally done in one to two days. If you’re dealing with a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, we can generally put it right, on coloured basins, coloured shower trays and avocado, pampas and pink baths alike.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

FAQs for Hillclifflane
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
Do you come to Hillclifflane?
Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Hillclifflane from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Will the price change on the day?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
Is there any odour?
There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Can I fix it myself?
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 usually the cheaper route.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

What coloured bath resurfacing costs
Resurfacing from £350. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We take into account:
- The type of damage
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How many areas need work
- How hard the colour is to match
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Send photos for a quote
You can usually get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Natural light rather than flash
- Where you are, by postcode
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
For landlords and businesses
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
What a repair cannot fix
We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- 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)
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white changes the colour with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking.
