About our coloured bath resurfacing in Tompkin
We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there is no plumbing or tiling. A full suite is normally done in one to two days. If you’re dealing with a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and faded or patchy colour, we can typically put it right, on coloured basins, whole bathroom suites and avocado, pampas and pink baths alike.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after the visit. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

FAQs for Tompkin
Can a coloured bath be made white?
Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Can you quote from pictures?
Normally, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Can tenants book a repair?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
What does coloured bath resurfacing cost?
Resurfacing from £350. Every job gets a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Do you come to Tompkin?
We do. Repair technicians travel to Tompkin from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Can I fix it myself?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
When we’d advise against a repair
We’ll always be straight with you, 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.
Materials we repair
- Coloured shower trays
- Whole bathroom suites
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Coloured basins
How the visit works
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we are there. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a day or two, depending on how many items. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- 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.
- Once cured, normally by the next day, the suite is ready.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Repair or replace in Tompkin?
Replacing a coloured suite means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing turns it white with everything left in place. Prices start from £350. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. There’s no area surcharge for Tompkin. The price reflects:
- The type of damage
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The colour and finish to match
- How much damage there is
Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
