Landlord and trade work in Portfield
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Portfield as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.
About our coloured bath resurfacing in Portfield
A full suite is normally done in one to two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. If you are dealing with a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and selling or letting a home with an old suite, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.
All our work comes with a one-year guarantee. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Portfield. What changes the price is:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The material and finish
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Unusual colours or finishes
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
How to get a fixed quote
When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Any details about the material
- Details of any past repairs
- A wider photo showing the entire suite
Upload a photo of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you are in Portfield, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
When we would advise against a repair
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)
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.
Materials we repair
- Coloured shower trays
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Coloured basins
- Whole bathroom suites
Should I try a DIY kit first?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
Common problems we fix in Portfield
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. It’s generally the colour that dates them, not the condition.

Your questions about coloured bath resurfacing in Portfield
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
Is there any odour?
There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Can a coloured bath be made white?
Yes. We resurface it in white with it left in place.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
How much does coloured bath resurfacing cost in Portfield?
Prices start from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Should you replace it?
Replacing a coloured suite involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white turns it white without taking anything out. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
