Coloured bath resurfacing in Trumpington without replacing anything

Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. We are often asked to fix a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and faded or patchy colour, in whole bathroom suites, coloured shower trays and avocado, pampas and pink baths.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Choosing a repair company

Should you replace it?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white changes the colour with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Why Trumpington clients choose us

  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • We leave the room as we found it

Can I fix it myself?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

The process

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. Most jobs take one to two days for a full suite, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
  5. Once cured, normally by the following day, the suite is ready.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

  • The inside of a toilet bowl, unless we’ve agreed it will last
  • Items cracked right through
