How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Newtown
A full suite is normally done in one to two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. We work on coloured basins, whole bathroom suites and avocado, pampas and pink baths, and people most frequently call us about a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and faded or patchy colour.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll come back. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

What we do, step by step
Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes one to two days for a full suite, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- Next we degrease everything and fix 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
- Open a window if you can
- Let us know about parking or access
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

How we price coloured bath resurfacing
Prices start from £350. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We take into account:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How many items we do on one visit
- The type of damage
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Getting a price from pictures
Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Natural light rather than flash
- Any details about the material
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- One sharp close-up of the damage
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing changes the colour with everything left in place. Prices start from £350. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
What you get with us
- No need to remove anything
- One price list for the entire UK
- Work done at your home or business
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish

When a repair is not the answer
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:
- 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 before you book.
Materials we work on in Newtown
- Coloured shower trays
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Coloured basins
- Whole bathroom suites
Can I fix it myself?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
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, it’s worth having it done properly.
