About our coloured bath resurfacing in Somerton
Most suites take one or two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. We regularly repair avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured basins and whole bathroom suites, and common reasons people get in touch are faded or patchy colour and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white.
Every job is backed for twelve months in Somerton and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Should you replace it?

A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

What affects the price in Somerton
Resurfacing from £350. You will know the full cost before booking. We take into account:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- What the surface is made of
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.
Send photos for a quote
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Natural light rather than flash
- One picture of the entire suite
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
To get a price, send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
When a repair is not the answer
A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:
- 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)
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.
What we work on
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Whole bathroom suites
- Coloured shower trays
- Coloured basins
Should I try a DIY kit first?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
FAQs for Somerton
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.
How do I book?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
How much does coloured bath resurfacing cost in Somerton?
Prices start from £350. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.
