Coloured bath resurfacing in Holt Head without replacing anything
Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. A full suite is usually done in one to two days. Whether it’s a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and faded or patchy colour, we can generally put it right, on coloured basins, avocado, pampas and pink baths and coloured shower trays alike.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white changes the colour with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
What a repair cannot fix
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)
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Whole bathroom suites
- Coloured basins
- Coloured shower trays
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:
- What the surface is made of
- How many areas need work
- What kind of damage it is
- How many items we do on one visit
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Quotes from your pictures
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Natural light rather than flash
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Where you are, by postcode
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
Common questions in Holt Head
When can you do it?
We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Can you turn my avocado bath white?
Yes. We resurface it in white with it left in place.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Do you come to Holt Head?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Holt Head. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can you do the toilet too?
Ask us. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we’ll advise honestly before quoting.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
You will get a fixed quote back, plus dates. You’re under no obligation.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Landlord and trade work in Holt Head
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Holt Head as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
For anyone letting property in or around Holt Head, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we will come back with a combined price.
How it works
We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. Allow a day or two, depending on how many items, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.
- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
- We leave everything to cure, typically until the next day.
Preparing for the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
How to get a price
Upload pictures of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Holt Head, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
