About our coloured bath resurfacing in Swaithe
Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. A full suite is generally done in one to two days. Our technicians work on coloured shower trays, avocado, pampas and pink baths and coloured basins, and common reasons people contact us are a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white.
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.

Swaithe: your questions answered
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
What about the toilet?
Talk to us first. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we’ll tell you what will last.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Swaithe.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Do the materials smell?
Expect a mild smell while we are working, which fades afterwards.

Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and many are still sound. The problem is generally the colour, not the bath.

How the visit works
Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. Allow one to two days for a full suite, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
- Each item is left to cure, typically ready the next day.
Before we arrive
- Let us know about parking or access
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Keep a parking space free if you can

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The colour and finish to match
- The type of damage
- Doing more than one item at once
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Swaithe. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
How to get a fixed quote
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Any details about the material
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
For landlords and businesses
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Swaithe use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a coloured suite means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white turns it white with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
