About our coloured bath resurfacing in Staplestreet
Most suites take one or two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. We are frequently asked to fix faded or patchy colour and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, in coloured shower trays, avocado, pampas and pink baths and coloured basins.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

What a repair cannot fix
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- 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.

Questions from Staplestreet
Can you quote from pictures?
In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
How much does coloured bath resurfacing cost in Staplestreet?
Prices start from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Are there extra charges for Staplestreet?
There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners in Staplestreet.
What areas do you cover?
Everywhere in the UK, Staplestreet included. Travel is included in the price.
How the visit works
You do not need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take a day or two, depending on how many items, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- The room is protected and ventilated.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- The surface is prepared and primed.
- We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
- Each item is left to cure, normally ready the next day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
Ask for a price
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
Advice
DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a coloured suite means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing turns it white without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
