Coloured Bath Resurfacing for Porlock homes
Coloured bath resurfacing in and around Porlock: a fixed quote from photos, a tidy visit and a one-year guarantee.
- Resurfacing from £350

About our coloured bath resurfacing in Porlock
A full suite is usually done in one to two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Our technicians work on avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured shower trays and whole bathroom suites, and common reasons people get in touch are a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and selling or letting a home with an old suite.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after the visit. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Porlock questions
What happens after I send photos?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Can a coloured bath be made white?
Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
How the visit works
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. Allow one to two days for a full suite.
- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
- Each item is left to cure, usually ready the next day.
How to prepare
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
Getting a price
Send us a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, with your TA24 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

What coloured bath resurfacing costs
Resurfacing from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How many areas need work
- What kind of damage it is
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
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.
Getting a price from pictures
Two or three clear photos are usually enough. Try to include:
- Something in shot to show the size
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

What a repair can’t fix
We won’t take on work that won’t 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)
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Materials we work on in Porlock
- Whole bathroom suites
- Coloured basins
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Coloured shower trays
For landlords and businesses
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Porlock use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing turns it white without taking anything out. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Why book with us
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
- No need to remove anything
- One price list for the whole UK
- Rooms protected and left tidy
