Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Unstone
We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. We are often asked to fix selling or letting a home with an old suite and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, on whole bathroom suites, coloured shower trays and avocado, pampas and pink baths.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we will come back. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Your questions about coloured bath resurfacing in Unstone
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.
Can you turn my avocado bath white?
Yes. We resurface it in white with it left in place.
What happens after I send photos?
We come back with a fixed price, usually with dates to choose from. You are under no obligation.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.
How much does coloured bath resurfacing cost in Unstone?
Prices start from £350. We give a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your S18 postcode.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Is there any odour?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

What we can’t put right
Some jobs are not right for a repair, including:
- 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)
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.
What we work on
- Whole bathroom suites
- Coloured basins
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Coloured shower trays
What coloured bath resurfacing costs
Prices start from £350. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We look at:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The material
- Access to the area
- The type of damage
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book.
Getting a price from photos
Phone photos are fine. Just make sure we can see:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Where you are, by postcode
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
What we do, step by step
We agree an arrival time beforehand. Once we are there, the work takes one to two days for a full suite for most jobs. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- We leave everything to cure, usually until the following day.
How to prepare
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
Ask for a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole suite, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
Related advice
What we’re called out for in Unstone
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. The problem is normally the colour, not the bath.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Faded or patchy colour
- A suite that does not match a new bathroom
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
Questions to ask before booking
- How long it needs to cure
- If travel is included in the price
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- How the colour is matched
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a coloured suite involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white changes the colour without taking anything out. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Why us?
- One-year guarantee on every repair
- Fixed prices from your pictures
- Usually one visit, start to finish
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
