Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Putnoe
A full suite is generally done in one to two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. Our repair technicians work on avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured basins and coloured shower trays, and the jobs we see most are faded or patchy colour and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Putnoe and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

The process
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we’re there. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a day or two, depending on how many items. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.
- The room is protected and ventilated.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- The surface is prepared and primed.
- We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
- Each item is left to cure, usually ready the following day.
Before we arrive
- Ensure the area is dry
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
Ask for a price
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 come back to you with a fixed figure.

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.

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

What coloured bath resurfacing costs
Resurfacing from £350. You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- How hard the colour is to match
- What kind of damage it is
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Doing more than one item at once
Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Getting a price from pictures
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:
- A picture taken from further back
- Where you are, by postcode
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
Landlord and trade work in Putnoe
If you manage property in Putnoe, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we will come back with a combined price.
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
Your questions about coloured bath resurfacing in Putnoe
What areas do you cover?
Across the UK, so Putnoe is covered. Prices don’t change with location.
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
What does coloured bath resurfacing cost?
Prices start from £350. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
Will there be a smell?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working, which fades afterwards.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you’ll get one combined price.
What we can’t put right
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- 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 photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.
Materials we repair
- Whole bathroom suites
- Coloured basins
- Coloured shower trays
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a coloured suite involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white turns it white without taking anything out. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
