Coloured bath resurfacing in Holwell without replacing anything
A full suite is generally done in one to two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. Typical jobs include selling or letting a home with an old suite and faded or patchy colour, on whole bathroom suites, avocado, pampas and pink baths and coloured basins.
Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

What coloured bath resurfacing costs
Resurfacing from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How many areas need work
- What the surface is made of
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Quotes from your photos
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Something in shot to show the size
- Where you are, by postcode
- One sharp close-up of the damage

Questions from Holwell
Can tenants book a repair?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Will there be a smell?
Expect a mild smell while we are working, which fades afterwards.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.
Do you cover the whole of Hertfordshire?
Across the UK, so Holwell is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Do you cover Holwell?
We do. We send a technician to Holwell for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
When can you do it?
We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

What else we do in Holwell
Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing 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. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.
Why us?
- Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
- Everything repaired in place
- No extra charge for your area
- Straight answers about what a repair can do
See our pricing and guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.
What a repair cannot fix
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:
- 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)
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Coloured basins
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Coloured shower trays
- Whole bathroom suites
How it works
When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take one to two days for a full suite. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
- Once cured, normally by the next day, the suite is ready.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
Getting a price
To get a price, send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
