- A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
The process
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we’re there. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes one to two days for a full suite. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
- We leave everything to cure, usually until the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Keep a parking space free if you can
How to get a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire suite, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
Related advice
Coloured bath resurfacing in Kingholm Quay without replacing anything
A full suite is typically done in one to two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Whether it’s a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, we can usually put it right, on whole bathroom suites, avocado, pampas and pink baths and coloured shower trays alike.
Every job is backed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

What a repair cannot fix
Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. 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)
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Coloured basins
- Coloured shower trays
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Whole bathroom suites
Should I try a DIY kit first?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
Your questions about coloured bath resurfacing in Kingholm Quay
Will there be a smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Can you do the toilet too?
Talk to us first. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we will advise honestly before quoting.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
What happens next?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.
Can you price it without visiting?
Generally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a coloured suite means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing changes the colour without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
