Our repair technicians come to Milltown for resurfacing coloured baths, basins and trays in white. Everything is done in place, and the work is guaranteed.

Coloured bath resurfacing in Milltown without replacing anything
A full suite is usually done in one to two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. We’re often asked to fix a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and selling or letting a home with an old suite, in avocado, pampas and pink baths, whole bathroom suites and coloured shower trays.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. 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.

Landlord and trade work in Milltown
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
When a repair is not the answer
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. We 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 photos and we will say what we think before you book.

Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and many are still sound. The problem is normally the colour, not the bath.

What coloured bath resurfacing costs
Resurfacing from £350. There is no charge for travel to Milltown. The price depends on:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How many areas need work
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
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.
Getting a price from photos
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A photo taken from further back
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Any details about the material
- Where you are, by postcode
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
Repairing versus replacing in Milltown
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing changes the colour with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Milltown. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
What you get with us
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- Fixed prices from your pictures
- Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
- Nothing taken out or refitted
