How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in St Stephen
Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. We’re often asked to fix faded or patchy colour and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, on coloured basins, avocado, pampas and pink baths and coloured shower trays.
You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Do you need coloured bath resurfacing in St Stephen?
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. The problem is usually the colour, not the bath.
You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:
- Faded or patchy colour
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- A suite that does not match a new bathroom
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
Before you book anyone
- How the colour is matched
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- How the room is protected while they work
- Whether a trained technician does the job
Should I try a DIY kit first?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.

How it works
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job usually takes one to two days for a full suite. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- 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 on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
- We leave everything to cure, typically until the next day.
How to prepare
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Open a window if you can
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
Getting a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

Resurfacing from £350. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We look at:
- How many items we do on one visit
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How much damage there is
We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Where you are, by postcode
Email us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your PL26 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
