Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Princes Risborough

We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. A full suite is generally done in one to two days. Common call-outs are for faded or patchy colour and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, in coloured shower trays, whole bathroom suites and avocado, pampas and pink baths.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will sort it. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

Prices and what affects them

Resurfacing from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • What kind of damage it is
  • The material
  • How easy the damage is to reach

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Princes Risborough. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Send pictures for a quote

Two or three clear pictures are typically enough. It helps if you send:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A wider photo showing the whole suite
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Any details about the material

There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

For landlords and businesses

If you manage property in Princes Risborough, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we will price them together.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Buckinghamshire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

When to call us in Princes Risborough

Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. The problem is generally the colour, not the bath.

The most common problems we’re called about are:

  • A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
  • Faded or patchy colour
  • A suite that does not match a new bathroom
  • Selling or letting a home with an old suite

Comparing quotes

  • How the colour is matched
  • Who turns up on the day
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included

How to compare quotes

What a repair cannot fix

We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot 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)

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Materials we work on in Princes Risborough

What happens on the day

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you are not left guessing. Once we are there, the work takes one to two days for a full suite. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
  5. Once cured, normally by the next day, the suite is ready.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a coloured suite involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white changes the colour without taking anything out. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why choose Surface Doctor in Princes Risborough
