Coloured Bath Resurfacing for Salway Ash homes
Resurfacing coloured baths, basins and trays in white in Salway Ash, 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 Salway Ash, done in place
We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. A full suite is typically done in one to two days. We work on avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured shower trays and coloured basins, and the jobs we see most are a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white.
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. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a coloured suite involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing turns it white without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

- 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)

How it works
Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for a day or two, depending on how many items. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and how to care for it.
- 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 the new white (or other colour) finish.
- We leave everything to cure, typically until the next day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
How to get a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the suite, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
Advice
Work for landlords and builders
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Salway Ash use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

Can tenants book a repair?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Do you cover Salway Ash?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Salway Ash. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
Kits are cheap and easy to find, 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’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
What coloured bath resurfacing costs
Resurfacing from £350. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. What matters most is:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How many items we do on one visit
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Getting a price from photos
Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Something in shot to show the size
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole suite, we can give you a fixed price.
