Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Tatsfield
We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. We are often asked to fix selling or letting a home with an old suite and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, in coloured shower trays, whole bathroom suites and coloured basins.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

What coloured bath resurfacing costs
Prices start from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Access to the area
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How hard the colour is to match
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Getting a price from pictures
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:
- Where you are, by postcode
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
Common questions in Tatsfield
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
You’ll get a fixed quote back. There is no obligation to book.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Typically, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
What about the toilet?
Talk to us first. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we’ll tell you what will last.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.
Will there be a smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.
Can you turn my avocado bath white?
Yes. We resurface it in white with it left in place.
The process
There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to one to two days for a full suite, including clearing up.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- We leave everything to cure, usually until the next day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
How to get a price
Email us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your TN16 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
Advice
What a repair can’t fix
A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:
- 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 will tell you honestly.

Repair or replace in Tatsfield?
Replacing a coloured suite means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white changes the colour without taking anything out. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Do you need coloured bath resurfacing in Tatsfield?
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. It’s usually the colour that dates them, not the condition.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- Faded or patchy colour
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
What to look for in a quote
- How the colour is matched
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- When it can be used again
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 isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
For landlords and businesses
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Greater London and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
