Coloured Bath Resurfacing for Templand homes
Fixed-price coloured bath resurfacing in Templand and the surrounding area, normally in one visit.
- Resurfacing from £350
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
The process
Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a day or two, depending on how many items, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- 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.
- We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
- We leave everything to cure, generally until the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Open a window if you can

Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Templand
Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. A full suite is typically done in one to two days. We are frequently asked to fix a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, on coloured basins, coloured shower trays and whole bathroom suites.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after the visit. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Templand
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

What a repair cannot fix

- 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)

What affects the price in Templand
Resurfacing from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- The material and finish
- The type of damage
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The colour and finish to match
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
How to get a fixed quote
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- The material, if you know it
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- One picture of the whole suite
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole suite, we can price the job without visiting.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing changes the colour with everything left in place. Prices start from £350. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Templand: your questions answered
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and we will quote them together.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Which areas do you work in?
We work UK-wide, and that includes Templand. Our prices are the same everywhere.
What happens after I send pictures?
You’ll get a fixed quote back, usually with dates to choose from. You are under no obligation.
Is there any odour?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working, which fades afterwards.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Can you do the toilet too?
Talk to us first. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we will tell you what will last.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
