About our coloured bath resurfacing in Trench Green
Most suites take one or two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. Our technicians work on coloured basins, coloured shower trays and avocado, pampas and pink baths, and people most frequently call us about faded or patchy colour and selling or letting a home with an old suite.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Trench Green: your questions answered
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
Which areas do you work in?
All of Reading, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
How much does coloured bath resurfacing cost in Trench Green?
Resurfacing from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Usually, yes. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send photos.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
DIY kit or professional repair?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Repairing versus replacing in Trench Green
Replacing a coloured suite involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing turns it white with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.
Why us?
- Same prices wherever you are
- Generally one visit, start to finish
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
- Colour-matched on site
See our prices page and resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.
What coloured bath resurfacing costs
Prices start from £350. We give every job a fixed price from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- The type of damage
- The material
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The colour and finish to match
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.
Send pictures for a quote
Phone pictures are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Ensure they show:
- One picture of the entire suite
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Something in shot to show the size
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
For landlords and businesses
For anyone letting property in or around Trench Green, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.
What we do, step by step
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to a day or two, depending on how many items.
- The room is protected and ventilated.
- We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
- The surface is prepared and primed.
- We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
- Once cured, normally by the following day, the suite is ready.
Before we arrive
- Make sure the area is dry
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and no obligation.
