Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Trispen
Most suites take one or two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. Common call-outs are for faded or patchy colour and selling or letting a home with an old suite, across coloured shower trays, whole bathroom suites and avocado, pampas and pink baths.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will sort it. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

What coloured bath resurfacing costs
Resurfacing from £350. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- The colour and finish to match
- The size and number of damaged areas
- What the surface is made of
- The type of damage
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Quotes from your photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- Details of any past repairs
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A wider photo showing the whole suite
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
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.
Work for landlords and builders
If you manage property in Trispen, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we will price them together.
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
What we do, step by step
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow one to two days for a full suite from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and how to look after it.
- 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 the new white (or other colour) finish.
- Once cured, normally by the following day, the suite is ready.
Before we arrive
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
Get a quote
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.
