About our coloured bath resurfacing in Marcham
A full suite is usually done in one to two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. Our repair technicians work on whole bathroom suites, coloured shower trays and avocado, pampas and pink baths, and people most often call us about a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Marcham and across Oxfordshire. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Do you need coloured bath resurfacing in Marcham?
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. It’s generally the colour that dates them, not the condition.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- Faded or patchy colour
- A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
What to look for in a quote
- When it can be used again
- What prep work is covered
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- What happens if they find more damage
For landlords and businesses
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.
What we do, step by step
There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to a day or two, depending on how many items, including clearing up.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
- We leave everything to cure, generally until the next day.
Preparing for the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Open a window if you can
- Let us know which floor the room is on
Ask for a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole suite, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
Advice
DIY repairs versus a professional job
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
What coloured bath resurfacing costs
Resurfacing from £350. There is no charge for travel to Marcham. The price comes down to:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- What the surface is made of
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Quotes from your pictures
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- One picture of the entire suite
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Something in shot to show the size
We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

Honest limits
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.
Surfaces we repair
- Coloured shower trays
- Coloured basins
- Whole bathroom suites
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white changes the colour without taking anything out. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts 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.

Marcham questions
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Can you turn my avocado bath white?
Yes. We resurface it in white with it left in place.
Can tenants book a repair?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Can you quote from photos?
Nearly always. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole suite and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
How do I get a price for coloured bath resurfacing in Marcham?
Resurfacing from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
