Coloured Bath Resurfacing for Purleigh homes
Fixed-price coloured bath resurfacing in Purleigh and the surrounding area, done in a single visit in most cases.
- Resurfacing from £350
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite

What coloured bath resurfacing costs
Prices start from £350. There’s no area surcharge for Purleigh. The price reflects:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The material and finish
- What kind of damage it is
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
How to get a fixed quote
You can generally get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:
- Any details about the material
- A wider photo showing the whole suite
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.
How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Purleigh
Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. A full suite is usually done in one to two days. We work on whole bathroom suites, coloured basins and coloured shower trays, and the jobs we see most are a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and faded or patchy colour.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

What we do, step by step
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you’re not left guessing. On site, it takes a day or two, depending on how many items. The room is left tidy.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- Each item is left to cure, typically ready the next day.
How to prepare
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Open a window if you can
How to get a price
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing turns it white with everything left in place. Prices start from £350. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

- Colour-matched on site
- Honest advice, even when it means no job

What a repair can’t fix
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, including:
- 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.
What we work on
- Whole bathroom suites

Your questions about coloured bath resurfacing in Purleigh
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Can a coloured bath be made white?
Yes. We resurface it in white with it left in place.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
