Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Thornton Watlass
Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. A full suite is generally done in one to two days. Our technicians work on whole bathroom suites, coloured basins and avocado, pampas and pink baths, and the jobs we see most are a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

What a repair cannot fix
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)
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Coloured basins
- Coloured shower trays
- Whole bathroom suites

Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
How it works
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. 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.
- The room is protected and ventilated.
- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
- Once cured, normally by the day after, the suite is ready.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Open a window if you can
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

What coloured bath resurfacing costs
Prices start from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Thornton Watlass. The price reflects:
- The material
- How hard the colour is to match
- How much damage there is
- Doing more than one item at once
A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Should you replace it?

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.
