Coloured bath resurfacing in Twyford, done in place
Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. A full suite is typically done in one to two days. We regularly repair whole bathroom suites, coloured basins and avocado, pampas and pink baths, and common reasons people contact us are a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and faded or patchy colour.
All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Northamptonshire. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Work for landlords and builders
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The material
- How much damage there is
- How hard the colour is to match
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Send photos for a quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- Any details about the material
- A picture taken from further back
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
Questions from Twyford
What about the toilet?
Ask us. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we’ll advise honestly before quoting.
What do you need from me?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Can you turn my avocado bath white?
Yes. We resurface it in white with it left in place.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. If pictures don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
What happens next?
We come back with a fixed price, typically with dates to choose from. There is no obligation to book.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Do you charge for travel?
We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

Common problems we fix in Twyford
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and many are still sound. The problem is typically the colour, not the bath.
Look out for any of the following:
- A suite that does not match a new bathroom
- Faded or patchy colour
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
Comparing quotes
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
- How the room is protected while they work
- What happens if they find more damage
- How to care for the finish
DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
What else we do in Twyford
Repairing versus replacing in Twyford
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. 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. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

The process
We turn up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes one to two days for a full suite, and we leave the room as we found it.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- Once cured, normally by the day after, the suite is ready.
How to prepare
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
How to get a price
To get a price, send a couple of pictures using our quote form or ring us. We will say immediately whether it can be repaired.
