Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Upper Poppleton
Most suites take one or two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. We regularly repair whole bathroom suites, coloured shower trays and avocado, pampas and pink baths, and common reasons people get in touch are a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
What we do, step by step
Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. Allow one to two days for a full suite.
- The room is protected and ventilated.
- We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
- We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
- Once cured, normally by the day after, the suite is ready.
How to prepare
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Point us to the nearest place to park
How to get a price
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Repair or replace in Upper Poppleton?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white changes the colour with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.
What you get with us
- Most jobs done in one visit
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
- Fixed prices from your pictures
Take a look at our prices page and guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.
What a repair cannot fix
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. We cannot fix:
- 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)
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.
What we work on
- Coloured basins
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Coloured shower trays
- Whole bathroom suites
DIY repairs versus a professional job
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

What coloured bath resurfacing costs

- The colour and finish to match
The price 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 price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
