Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Marston Moretaine
Most suites take one or two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Common call-outs are for a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and selling or letting a home with an old suite, on avocado, pampas and pink baths, whole bathroom suites and coloured basins.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll come back. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Should you replace it?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white changes the colour without taking anything out. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Why book with us
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- Usually one visit, start to finish
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
See our pricing and resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.
What coloured bath resurfacing costs
Prices start from £350. We don’t charge extra for travel to Marston Moretaine. The price comes down to:
- The material and finish
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Access to the area
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Quotes from your pictures
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:
- A wider photo showing the whole suite
- Where you are, by postcode
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and no obligation.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
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 typically the cheaper route.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Marston Moretaine questions
Is there a call-out fee?
We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.
Can you turn my avocado bath white?
Yes. We resurface it in white with it left in place.
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work. It fades as everything cures.
What about the toilet?
Ask us. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we’ll advise honestly before quoting.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote with dates.
What happens if you find more damage?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.
Do you cover the whole of Bedford Borough?
We work UK-wide, so Marston Moretaine is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.
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)
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
