Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Maxey

We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. Whether it’s a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and selling or letting a home with an old suite, we can usually put it right, on coloured shower trays, whole bathroom suites and coloured basins alike.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re covered after the visit. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

How the visit works

Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow a day or two, depending on how many items. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and how to care for it.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
  3. The surface is prepared and primed.
  4. We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
  5. Once cured, normally by the next day, the suite is ready.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

How to get a price

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a coloured suite means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white turns it white without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.

Why us?

  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • No extra charge for your area
  • One-year guarantee on every repair

Read our full price list and guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.

What we are called out for in Maxey

Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. It’s typically the colour that dates them, not the condition.

If you can see any of these, send us a photo:

  • A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
  • Selling or letting a home with an old suite
  • Faded or patchy colour
  • A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom

Questions to ask before booking

  • How the room is protected while they work
  • How the colour is matched
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long

10 questions to ask before booking

Common questions in Maxey

Can you quote from photos?

In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.

What areas do you cover?

Across the UK, and that includes Maxey. Our prices are the same everywhere.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Is the work guaranteed?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Can a coloured bath be made white?

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

What a repair cannot fix

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • 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 will tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

What coloured bath resurfacing costs

Prices start from £350. There’s no charge for travel to Maxey. The price comes down to:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Getting a price from pictures

Phone photos are fine. Just ensure we can see:

  • Any details about the material
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • One picture of the whole suite
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

For a price in Maxey, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

For landlords and businesses

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

If you manage property in Maxey, we will quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we’ll price them together.
