Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Sidlow
We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. If you are dealing with selling or letting a home with an old suite and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, we can help, whatever the material.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Do you need coloured bath resurfacing in Sidlow?
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. It’s usually the colour that dates them, not the condition.
Clients normally contact us about:
- Faded or patchy colour
- 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
Questions to ask before booking
- Aftercare advice
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- How long it needs to cure
Should I try a DIY kit first?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
What happens on the day
We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. You can expect it to take one to two days for a full suite, and we will tell you if anything changes.
- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- We leave everything to cure, generally until the next day.
How to prepare
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Make sure the area is dry

Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. The main factors are:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How much damage there is
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The colour and finish to match
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Send pictures for a quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- Where you are, by postcode
- The material, if you know it
- One picture of the whole suite
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Upload a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you are in Sidlow, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
Work for landlords and builders
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a coloured suite means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white turns it white without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking.

Your questions about coloured bath resurfacing in Sidlow
Can you quote from photos?
In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Are there extra charges for Sidlow?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in Sidlow.
Do you hold any accreditations?

Can you redo someone else’s repair?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
What a repair cannot fix
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- 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 pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.
What we work on
- Coloured shower trays
- Coloured basins
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
