Repair or replace in Swattenden?
Replacing a coloured suite means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing changes the colour with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Why us?
- Same prices wherever you are
- A fixed quote before booking
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- Nothing taken out or refitted

Coloured bath resurfacing in Swattenden, done in place
We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there is no plumbing or tiling. A full suite is normally done in one to two days. Typical jobs include selling or letting a home with an old suite and faded or patchy colour, in coloured shower trays, coloured basins and avocado, pampas and pink baths.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

What we do, step by step
You do not need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take one to two days for a full suite, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- 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 the new white (or other colour) finish.
- Each item is left to cure, usually ready the day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

What affects the price in Swattenden
Resurfacing from £350. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. These are the things that affect it:
- How many items we do on one visit
- The type of damage
- Access to the area
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Swattenden. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Getting a price from pictures
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
Upload a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your TN17 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Common questions in Swattenden
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
How do I book?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Can a coloured bath be made white?
Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
