Coloured Bath Resurfacing for Slack Head homes
Coloured bath resurfacing for Slack Head, without a refit. Send us pictures for a fixed price, then book a visit.
- Resurfacing from £350

How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Slack Head
A full suite is usually done in one to two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Typical jobs include a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and faded or patchy colour, in coloured shower trays, coloured basins and whole bathroom suites.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

What coloured bath resurfacing costs
Prices start from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- How many areas need work
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How many items we do on one visit
- What kind of damage it is
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Quotes from your photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A wider photo showing the entire suite
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the suite, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
For landlords and businesses
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Common questions in Slack Head
Will there be a smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.
Can you turn my avocado bath white?
Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
What happens next?
You’ll get a fixed quote back, usually with dates to choose from. You are under no obligation.
Are there extra charges for Slack Head?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
What do you need from me?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
When can you do it?
We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
What happens on the day
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take one to two days for a full suite. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.
- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
- We leave everything to cure, generally until the next day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

What a repair can’t fix
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- 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 you book.
What we work on
- Whole bathroom suites
- Coloured shower trays
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Coloured basins
DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a coloured suite means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing changes the colour with everything left in place. 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.
