Coloured bath resurfacing near Marton

How the visit works

We begin by going over the job with you. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. Allow a day or two, depending on how many items.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
  3. We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
  5. We leave everything to cure, usually until the following day.

How to prepare

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

How to get a price

Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Marton

We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. A full suite is normally done in one to two days. Whether it’s faded or patchy colour and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, we can help.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

DIY kit or professional repair?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Marton questions

Can a coloured bath be made white?

Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.

What about the toilet?

Ask us. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we will advise honestly before quoting.

How much does coloured bath resurfacing cost in Marton?

Resurfacing from £350. We give a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item and your postcode.

What happens after I send pictures?

You’ll get a fixed quote back. There is no obligation to book.

What happens if you find more damage?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a coloured suite involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing changes the colour without taking anything out. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Why us?

  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • A fixed quote before you book
  • No need to remove anything

Read our prices page or resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.

When we would advise against a repair

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

  • 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 pictures and we will say what we think.

What we work on

  • Coloured shower trays
  • Avocado, pampas and pink baths
  • Whole bathroom suites
  • Coloured basins

What coloured bath resurfacing costs

Resurfacing from £350. You will know the full cost before booking. We look at:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Access to the area
  • How many items we do on one visit

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Marton. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

How to get a fixed price

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • One picture of the entire suite
  • What it’s made of, if you know

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole suite, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

  • A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
  • Faded or patchy colour

What to look for in a quote
