Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Ridgewell
Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there is no plumbing or tiling. A full suite is typically done in one to two days. We are frequently asked to fix a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and faded or patchy colour, across avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured basins and coloured shower trays.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we will sort it. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Ridgewell: your questions answered
Can you quote from photos?
Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Will there be a smell?
Expect a mild smell while we are working that clears as it cures.
What about the toilet?
Talk to us first. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we will advise honestly before quoting.
How quickly can you book me in?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
How much does coloured bath resurfacing cost in Ridgewell?
Resurfacing from £350. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before you book.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
What happens on the day
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take one to two days for a full suite.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- We leave everything to cure, typically until the day after.
Before we arrive
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Have a window or extractor fan available

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the suite, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
Related advice
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 without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

See our pricing and resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Do you need coloured bath resurfacing in Ridgewell?
Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and many are still sound. It’s generally the colour that dates them, not the condition.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
- Faded or patchy colour
What your quote should include
- How long it needs to cure
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- What preparation is included
- Who turns up on the day
Landlords, agents and businesses in Ridgewell
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.
What coloured bath resurfacing costs
Prices start from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- The material
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.
How to get a fixed quote
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.
When a repair is not the answer
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- 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 pictures and we will say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Coloured shower trays
- Whole bathroom suites
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
