Coloured bath resurfacing in Portobello 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. If you’re dealing with a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and faded or patchy colour, we can help, on avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured basins and coloured shower trays alike.
Every job is backed for twelve months in Portobello and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
When we’d advise against a repair
Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. We cannot fix:
- 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 will say what we think before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Coloured shower trays
- Whole bathroom suites
- Coloured basins

Repair or replace in Portobello?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves 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. 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. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Why us?
- Generally one visit, start to finish
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- A fixed quote before you book

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:
- Doing more than one item at once
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The colour and finish to match
- How easy the damage is to reach
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Portobello. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
How to get a fixed quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Details of any past repairs
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A picture taken from further back
Email us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your WV13 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

- Faded or patchy colour
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white

What we do, step by step
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take one to two days for a full suite. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- 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.
- We leave everything to cure, usually until the next day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
