Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Merrylee
Most suites take one or two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. Common call-outs are for selling or letting a home with an old suite and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, across coloured shower trays, whole bathroom suites and coloured basins.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
Merrylee: your questions answered
Can a coloured bath be made white?
Yes. We resurface it in white with it left in place.
What happens next?
We come back with a fixed price. You are under no obligation.
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
Will there be a smell?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.
What information do you need?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we will quote them together.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send photos.
How we price coloured bath resurfacing
Resurfacing from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Access to the area
- How many areas need work
- Whether we combine several jobs
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Send pictures for a quote
Two or three clear pictures are usually enough. It helps if you send:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Natural light rather than flash
- Where you are, by postcode
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
What we do, step by step
You don’t need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. It generally takes one to two days for a full suite, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- We leave everything to cure, usually until the following day.
How to prepare
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Have a window or extractor fan available

Repairing versus replacing in Merrylee
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white changes the colour with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Merrylee. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
What you get with us
- One visit for most repairs
- Same prices wherever you are
- No need to remove anything
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
See our full price list and resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.
What a repair can’t fix
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t 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)
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
What we work on
- Coloured shower trays
- Whole bathroom suites
- Coloured basins
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
When to call us in Merrylee
Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. It’s typically the colour that dates them, not the condition.
Common reasons people in Merrylee contact us include:
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- Faded or patchy colour
What to look for in a quote
- What aftercare is recommended
- How the colour is matched
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- Who turns up on the day

Work for landlords and builders
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
