- Items cracked right through

Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Ilsington
A full suite is normally done in one to two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. We regularly repair coloured basins, avocado, pampas and pink baths and whole bathroom suites, and common reasons people get in touch are a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after the visit. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

How we price coloured bath resurfacing
Prices start from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Ilsington. The price reflects:
- Doing more than one item at once
- What the surface is made of
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How hard the colour is to match
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Quotes from your pictures
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- Something in shot to show the size
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A wider photo showing the entire suite
- The material, if you know it
Email us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your TQ13 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
For landlords and businesses
Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.

Can I fix it myself?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Will you leave a mess?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white turns it white without taking anything out. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.
Why Ilsington clients choose us
- No need to remove anything
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited

- Colour mixed on the day to match

How the visit works
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a day or two, depending on how many items. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.
- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- The surface is prepared and primed.
- The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
- Once cured, normally by the next day, the suite is ready.
How to prepare
- Let us know about parking or access
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
Getting a price
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
