Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Thorley Street
We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. A full suite is usually done in one to two days. We work on avocado, pampas and pink baths, whole bathroom suites and coloured basins, and people most frequently call us about a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Landlord and trade work in Thorley Street
If you manage property in Thorley Street, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.
Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Can I fix it myself?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
When we would advise against a repair
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- 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 before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Coloured shower trays
- Whole bathroom suites

What coloured bath resurfacing costs
Resurfacing from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How many areas need work
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The material
We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Thorley Street. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Getting a price from pictures
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Where you are, by postcode
- One picture of the entire suite
- Something in shot to show the size
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
The process
We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take a day or two, depending on how many items, and we leave the room as we found it.
- 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.
- The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
- We leave everything to cure, typically until the following day.
How to prepare
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Let us know if it has been repaired before

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. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.
