Coloured Bath Resurfacing for Rakeway homes
Resurfacing coloured baths, basins and trays in white in Rakeway, carried out at your home and guaranteed for a year.
- Resurfacing from £350
- Faded or patchy colour
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
Coloured bath resurfacing in Rakeway, done in place
A full suite is typically done in one to two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. We’re often asked to fix a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, in avocado, pampas and pink baths, whole bathroom suites and coloured shower trays.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Landlord and trade work in Rakeway
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.
What we do, step by step
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. Once we are there, the work takes one to two days for a full suite for most jobs. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.
- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
- We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- Each item is left to cure, generally ready the following day.
How to prepare
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Make sure the area is dry
How to get a price
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Do you need coloured bath resurfacing in Rakeway?
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. It’s usually the colour that dates them, not the condition.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
- Faded or patchy colour
What your quote should include
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- How the room is protected while they work
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
When we’d advise against a repair
Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:
- 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)
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.
Materials we repair

DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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 often lifts.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
FAQs for Rakeway
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Can you turn my avocado bath white?
Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

What happens after I send photos?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
