Trusted coloured bath resurfacing in Hollingrove

Coloured bath resurfacing in Hollingrove without replacing anything

We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. A full suite is usually done in one to two days. Our repair technicians work on coloured basins, coloured shower trays and avocado, pampas and pink baths, 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 are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll sort it. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing changes the colour with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Why book with us

  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures

Read our prices page or bath cost comparison.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

FAQs for Hollingrove

Can you do the toilet too?

Ask us. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we will advise honestly before quoting.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.

How do I book?

Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.

Can a coloured bath be made white?

Yes. We resurface it in white with it left in place.

Do you work in Hollingrove?

Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Hollingrove from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Can you price it without visiting?

Usually, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

When a repair is not the answer

In fairness, 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 photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
  5. Each item is left to cure, usually ready the following day.
