Coloured bath resurfacing in Thenford without replacing anything
A full suite is typically done in one to two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. If you are dealing with faded or patchy colour and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, we can normally put it right, on coloured shower trays, coloured basins and whole bathroom suites alike.
Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
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.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. 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.
Questions from Thenford
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
What do you need from me?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.
Do you work in Thenford?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Thenford for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Which areas do you work in?
Across the UK, so Thenford is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Can pets and children be at home?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
What we do, step by step
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a day or two, depending on how many items, 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 key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- Each item is left to cure, normally ready the following day.
Before we arrive
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Common problems we fix in Thenford
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. It’s normally the colour that dates them, not the condition.
The things customers normally mention when they call include:
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- Faded or patchy colour
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- A suite that does not match a new bathroom
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- How the room is protected while they work
When we would advise against a repair
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.
What we work on
- Coloured shower trays
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Coloured basins
- Whole bathroom suites
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Thenford. What changes the price is:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The type of damage
- How many items we do on one visit
- The size and number of damaged areas
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
How to get a fixed quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- The material, if you know it
If you’re in Thenford and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
