About our coloured bath resurfacing in Newtown
Most suites take one or two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Whether it’s faded or patchy colour and selling or letting a home with an old suite, we can normally put it right, on coloured shower trays, coloured basins and whole bathroom suites alike.
All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Questions from Newtown
Can you do the toilet too?
Ask us. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we’ll advise honestly before quoting.
How do I get a price for coloured bath resurfacing in Newtown?
Prices start from £350. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
What happens next?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Typically, yes. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send pictures.
Are there extra charges for Newtown?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Can a coloured bath be made white?
Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.

- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
- We leave everything to cure, normally until the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Getting a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the suite, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.
Advice
When to call us in Newtown
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.
Get in touch if you’ve noticed any of these:
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- Faded or patchy colour

What coloured bath resurfacing costs
Prices start from £350. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- How many areas need work
- What kind of damage it is
- Access to the area
- Doing more than one item at once
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Quotes from your pictures
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A wider photo showing the entire suite
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job the same day in most cases.
Work for landlords and builders
For anyone letting property in or around Newtown, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we will come back with a combined price.
Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white changes the colour with everything left in place. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

- Work done at your home or business
