Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Matching
We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. We regularly repair avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured shower trays and whole bathroom suites, and people most frequently call us about faded or patchy colour and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

How it works
Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes one to two days for a full suite, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
- We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- We leave everything to cure, normally until the day after.
How to prepare
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Clear the area around the damage
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
Getting a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the suite, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- How many areas need work
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- What the surface is made of
- The type of damage
We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Send photos for a quote
You can generally get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Natural light rather than flash
- The material, if you know it
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
What a repair cannot fix
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’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)
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
Surfaces we repair
- Coloured shower trays
- Coloured basins
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Whole bathroom suites
Repairing versus replacing in Matching
Replacing a coloured suite means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white changes the colour without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Why us?
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
- No need to remove anything
- Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide

Should I try a DIY kit first?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
Matching questions
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Can a coloured bath be made white?
Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.
Which areas do you work in?
Everywhere in the UK, Matching included. Travel is included in the price.
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
How do I get a price for coloured bath resurfacing in Matching?
Resurfacing from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You will get a fixed figure before you book.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
