About our coloured bath resurfacing in North End
Most suites take one or two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. We’re frequently asked to fix a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and faded or patchy colour, on avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured basins and coloured shower trays.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in North End as everywhere else we work. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

The process
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a day or two, depending on how many items. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- Once cured, normally by the following day, the suite is ready.
Before we arrive
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
Ask for a price

Your questions about coloured bath resurfacing in North End
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
What do you need from me?
Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.
What happens if you find more damage?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Do the materials smell?
Expect a mild smell while we are working, which fades afterwards.
Which areas do you work in?
All of Portsmouth, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.
How quickly can you book me in?
We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.
How we price coloured bath resurfacing
Resurfacing from £350. There is no area surcharge for North End. What changes the price is:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The material and finish
- What kind of damage it is
We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Quotes from your photos
Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Details of any past repairs
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Any details about the material
To get a price, send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
What a repair cannot fix
We won’t take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- 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)
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
Materials we repair

North End and the surrounding area
North End is about 1 mile north of Portsmouth, in Portsmouth. Across the PO2 area, a technician comes to you. Our technicians cover 19 places in Portsmouth, from the larger towns to small villages. Our nearest city page is London, about 64 miles away.
Our visits in PO2 and PO1 are booked in the same way as anywhere else. Jobs here include addresses on Knox Road, Croft Road and Kirby Road and the roads around them. North End is on the A2047, so it’s easy for us to reach. We also travel to Rudmore (1 mile south-west), Tipner (1 mile west), Portsmouth (1 mile south), Copnor (1 mile south-east) and Hilsea (1 mile north-east).
Landmarks near North End
Typical jobs here are in homes near Corpus Christi Catholic Primary School, The Clarence pub and Alexandra Park, among other places.

Work for landlords and builders
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
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.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a coloured suite means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white changes the colour with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Why book with us
- No extra charge for your area
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- Work done at your home or business
- Generally one visit, start to finish
