About our coloured bath resurfacing in Hunters Forstal
We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. Typical jobs include a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and selling or letting a home with an old suite, on coloured shower trays, coloured basins and whole bathroom suites.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Can I fix it myself?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
