Coloured suite to white in Nevendon, Essex
Coloured bath resurfacing in and around Nevendon: a fixed quote from photos, a tidy visit and a one-year guarantee.
- Resurfacing from £350
- Faded or patchy colour
- A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
Should I try a DIY kit first?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will 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.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
Coloured bath resurfacing in Nevendon, done in place
Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. A full suite is usually done in one to two days. Common call-outs are for a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and faded or patchy colour, across coloured basins, coloured shower trays and avocado, pampas and pink baths.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Nevendon and across Essex. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

What coloured bath resurfacing costs
Prices start from £350. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- How many areas need work
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The type of damage
- How hard the colour is to match
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Getting a price from pictures
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Something in shot to show the size
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole suite, we can give you a fixed price.
The process
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take one to two days for a full suite. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- The room is protected and ventilated.
- 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, typically until the day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
How to get a price
Email us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your SS12 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
