What coloured bath resurfacing costs

Resurfacing from £350. There’s no charge for travel to Maxton. The price comes down to:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • What the surface is made of
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Doing more than one item at once

We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Maxton. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Quotes from your pictures

When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Any details about the material
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A wider photo showing the whole suite

We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

Maxton: your questions answered

Can you turn my avocado bath white?

How much does coloured bath resurfacing cost in Maxton?

Resurfacing from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before booking.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

What happens after I send photos?

We come back with a fixed price, generally with dates to choose from. There’s no obligation to book.

Repair or replace in Maxton?

Replacing a coloured suite involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing changes the colour without taking anything out. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

What we do, step by step

We work cleanly and quietly. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a day or two, depending on how many items. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
  3. We prepare 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, generally until the day after.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Ask for a price

For most jobs, pictures 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.

When a repair is not the answer

In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not 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.

Materials we repair

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

When to call us in Maxton

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

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

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

Questions to ask before booking

  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • How the colour is matched
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
