Coloured bath resurfacing in Owlswick without replacing anything
We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. We’re frequently asked to fix a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and faded or patchy colour, on whole bathroom suites, coloured basins and coloured shower trays.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Signs you need coloured bath resurfacing in Owlswick
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. It’s usually the colour that dates them, not the condition.
You may need us if you’ve spotted:
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- Faded or patchy colour
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
Questions to ask before booking
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- Aftercare advice
- What prep work is covered
Can I fix it myself?
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.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
For landlords and businesses
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Owlswick use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a coloured suite means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white changes the colour without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. It normally takes one to two days for a full suite, and we will tell you if anything changes.
- The room is protected and ventilated.
- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- The surface is prepared and primed.
- The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
- Each item is left to cure, normally ready the following day.

What affects the price in Owlswick
Resurfacing from £350. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- How many items we do on one visit
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Send pictures for a quote
Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A photo taken from further back
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
To get a price, send a couple of photos using our quote form or ring us. We’ll say immediately whether it can be repaired.
