How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in King's Acre
We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there is no plumbing or tiling. A full suite is normally done in one to two days. If you are dealing with selling or letting a home with an old suite and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, we can help, on coloured basins, whole bathroom suites and avocado, pampas and pink baths alike.
You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Your questions about coloured bath resurfacing in King's Acre
How do I book?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
What happens next?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
How do I get a price for coloured bath resurfacing in King's Acre?
Prices start from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
Work for landlords and builders
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.
Repair or replace in King's Acre?
Replacing a coloured suite means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white turns it white without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

What a repair can’t fix
In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- 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)
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.
