About our coloured bath resurfacing in Hood Green
We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. We regularly repair avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured shower trays and coloured basins, and common reasons people contact us are a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and faded or patchy colour.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

What else we do in Hood Green
How it works
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes one to two days for a full suite, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- The room is protected and ventilated.
- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
- We leave everything to cure, generally until the day after.
Before we arrive
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Clear the area around the damage
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Can I fix it myself?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. 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.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a coloured suite means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white changes the colour with everything left in place. Prices start from £350. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

Hood Green questions
Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Do you work in Hood Green?
Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Hood Green from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
What happens after I send pictures?
We come back with a fixed quote, plus dates. You’re under no obligation.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
Can you quote from pictures?
Usually, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Can you turn my avocado bath white?
Yes. We resurface it in white with it left in place.
When a repair isn’t the answer
We will not take on work 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 pictures and we will say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Coloured basins
- Coloured shower trays
- Whole bathroom suites
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
Common problems we fix in Hood Green

The things customers normally mention when they call are:
- Faded or patchy colour
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
What to look for in a quote

- Aftercare advice
- What protection goes down before work starts
- Whether the price covers travel
How we price coloured bath resurfacing
Prices start from £350. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- What kind of damage it is
- How hard the colour is to match
- The material
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking.
Getting a price from pictures
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- Details of any past repairs
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A wider photo showing the whole suite
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
