About our coloured bath resurfacing in The Rookery
We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. A full suite is normally done in one to two days. Typical jobs include a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, in coloured shower trays, whole bathroom suites and coloured basins.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

When a repair isn’t the answer
We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- 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 pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
Materials we repair
- Coloured shower trays
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths

What affects the price in The Rookery
Prices start from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The material and finish
- Whether we combine several jobs
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Send pictures for a quote
Two or three clear pictures are usually enough. Try to include:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Any details about the material
- One picture of the entire suite
For a price in The Rookery, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
The process
Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Allow one to two days for a full suite from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to care for it.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- The surface is prepared and primed.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- We leave everything to cure, generally until the following day.
How to prepare
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and no obligation.

FAQs for The Rookery
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Which areas do you work in?
We work UK-wide. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Are there extra charges for The Rookery?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
What happens if you find more damage?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Can a coloured bath be made white?
Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
DIY kit or professional repair?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
