- Resurfacing from £350

Should I try a DIY kit first?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Stockbury
Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. Typical jobs include a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, across avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured basins and whole bathroom suites.
You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Signs you need coloured bath resurfacing in Stockbury
Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. It’s normally the colour that dates them, not the condition.
Send us a picture if you notice any of these:
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- Faded or patchy colour
- A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
What your quote should include
- What protection goes down before work starts
- Who will actually do the work
- How long it needs to cure
- How the colour is matched
Should you replace it?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing changes the colour with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.

Questions from Stockbury
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Can a coloured bath be made white?
Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
What does coloured bath resurfacing cost?
Resurfacing from £350. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Do you come to Stockbury?
We do. Technicians travel to Stockbury from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Which areas do you work in?
Across the UK, so Stockbury is covered. Prices do not change with location.
What coloured bath resurfacing costs
Resurfacing from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Stockbury. What changes the price is:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Access to the area
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Stockbury. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Getting a price from pictures
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A picture taken from further back
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
The process
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job normally takes one to two days for a full suite. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- The surface is prepared and primed.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- We leave everything to cure, typically until the day after.
How to prepare
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
Ask for a price
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
