Coloured Bath Resurfacing in Ruardean
Coloured bath resurfacing across Ruardean and nearby, usually in one visit.
- Resurfacing from £350
- Faded or patchy colour
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
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. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Coloured bath resurfacing in Ruardean, done in place
A full suite is generally done in one to two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Common call-outs are for selling or letting a home with an old suite and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, on coloured shower trays, coloured basins and avocado, pampas and pink baths.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Ruardean and across Gloucestershire. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

- The room is protected and ventilated.
- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
- We leave everything to cure, normally until the day after.

Advice
Questions from Ruardean
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Can you turn my avocado bath white?
Yes. We resurface it in white with it left in place.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across Gloucestershire.
What areas do you cover?
All of Gloucestershire, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.
Can you quote from photos?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
Can pets and children be at home?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.
Work for landlords and builders
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

When to call us in Ruardean
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and many are still sound. It’s usually the colour that dates them, not the condition.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- 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 your quote should include
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- Who will actually do the work
- Whether they match the colour on site
- What protection goes down before work starts
Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How many areas need work
- How hard the colour is to match
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Quotes from your pictures
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A wider photo showing the entire suite
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
For a price in Ruardean, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Honest limits
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’ll tell you honestly.
Materials we work on in Ruardean
