About our coloured bath resurfacing in Longnor
A full suite is generally done in one to two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Our repair technicians work on coloured shower trays, coloured basins and whole bathroom suites, and the jobs we see most are a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and faded or patchy colour.
All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

What coloured bath resurfacing costs
Prices start from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- The material and finish
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How hard the colour is to match
- What kind of damage it is
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Send photos for a quote
Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- The material, if you know it
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A clear, close picture of the problem area

DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
