Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Rushmere
We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. Our technicians work on whole bathroom suites, coloured basins and coloured shower trays, and the jobs we see most are selling or letting a home with an old suite and faded or patchy colour.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
What affects the price in Rushmere
Resurfacing from £350. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How much damage there is
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The material
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Rushmere. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Quotes from your pictures
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Details of any past repairs
- A wider photo showing the whole suite
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
If you are in Rushmere and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- 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.
- We leave everything to cure, typically until the following day.
