Coloured Bath Resurfacing in Marden Ash
Resurfacing coloured baths, basins and trays in white in Marden Ash, carried out at your home and guaranteed for a year.
- Resurfacing from £350
- Faded or patchy colour
- A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How many items we do on one visit
- How much damage there is
- How hard the colour is to match
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Send pictures for a quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Any details about the material
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
If you’re in Marden Ash and want a price, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
Coloured bath resurfacing in Marden Ash without replacing anything
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. Our technicians work on whole bathroom suites, coloured basins and coloured shower trays, and the jobs we see most are a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and faded or patchy colour.
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Essex. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

What we cannot put right
We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:
- 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 before booking.

- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- Faded or patchy colour

Landlords, agents and businesses in Marden Ash
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Marden Ash as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
What happens on the day
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes one to two days for a full suite for most jobs. We leave the room clean.
- The room is protected and ventilated.
- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
- We leave everything to cure, usually until the next day.
How to prepare
- Make sure the area is dry
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
How to get a price

Should I try a DIY kit first?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
