Coloured bath resurfacing in Salehurst, done in place
Most suites take one or two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Our technicians work on coloured shower trays, coloured basins and whole bathroom suites, and the jobs we see most are a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and selling or letting a home with an old suite.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we’ve gone. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

What we’re called out for in Salehurst
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and many are still sound. The problem is generally the colour, not the bath.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- Faded or patchy colour
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- A suite that does not match a new bathroom
Before you book anyone
- Whether they match the colour on site
- Aftercare advice

Salehurst: your questions answered
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.
Can a coloured bath be made white?
Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.
What about the toilet?
Talk to us first. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we will tell you what will last.
What happens after I send pictures?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
Can you quote from photos?
Typically, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
What do you need from me?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a coloured suite means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing turns it white with everything left in place. Prices start from £350. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Salehurst. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Work for landlords and builders
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will arrange it.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
What happens on the day
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. You can expect it to take one to two days for a full suite, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.
- The room is protected and ventilated.
- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- The surface is prepared and primed.
- We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
- We leave everything to cure, normally until the next day.
Before we arrive
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Clear the area around the damage
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
Getting a price
Email us a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, with your TN32 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

What coloured bath resurfacing costs
Prices start from £350. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- What the surface is made of
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Whether we combine several jobs
We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Getting a price from photos
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:
- A wider photo showing the whole suite
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- What it’s made of, if you know
If you’re in Salehurst and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

What we can’t put right
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can 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)
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Coloured basins
- Whole bathroom suites
- Coloured shower trays
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
Can I fix it myself?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
