Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Starling's Green
Most suites take one or two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. Whether it’s a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll come back. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Starling's Green questions
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. If pictures don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
What happens next?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
What happens if you find more damage?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.
Can a coloured bath be made white?
Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
What we do, step by step
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to a day or two, depending on how many items, tidy-up included.
- The room is protected and ventilated.
- 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.
- Once cured, normally by the next day, the suite is ready.
Getting ready for the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
Getting a price
Email us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your CB11 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

How we price coloured bath resurfacing
Resurfacing from £350. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- How many areas need work
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether we combine several jobs
- What kind of damage it is
A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed quote
You can take the photos on your phone. Make sure they show:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A wider photo showing the whole suite
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the suite, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
What we can’t put right
We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- 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 photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Coloured basins
- Whole bathroom suites
- Coloured shower trays
Should you replace it?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing turns it white with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.
Why Starling's Green clients choose us
- We leave the room as we found it
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- Most jobs done in one visit
- We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing

Can I fix it myself?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
