About our coloured bath resurfacing in Over Compton
A full suite is typically done in one to two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. We regularly repair coloured basins, avocado, pampas and pink baths and whole bathroom suites, and people most often call us about a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and faded or patchy colour.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are covered after the visit. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- Faded or patchy colour

The process
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the work takes one to two days for a full suite. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.
- 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 on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
- Each item is left to cure, generally ready the day after.
Getting ready for the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Ensure the area is dry
- Let us know if it has been repaired before

What coloured bath resurfacing costs
Prices start from £350. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. These are the things that affect it:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The material
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether we combine several jobs
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Getting a price from photos
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A wider photo showing the whole suite
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Upload a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your DT9 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
What a repair cannot fix
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- 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 pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
Materials we repair

What else we do in Over Compton
Can I fix it myself?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Repairing versus replacing in Over Compton
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing turns it white with everything left in place. Prices start from £350. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

FAQs for Over Compton
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire suite and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Can you do the toilet too?
Talk to us first. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we’ll advise honestly before quoting.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Can you turn my avocado bath white?
Yes. We resurface it in white with it left in place.
What does coloured bath resurfacing cost?
Resurfacing from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
