About our coloured bath resurfacing in Upper Stratton
We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. Whether it’s a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, we can help, on avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured shower trays and whole bathroom suites alike.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Upper Stratton: your questions answered
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Can you price it without visiting?
Generally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Can you do the toilet too?
Ask us. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we’ll advise honestly before quoting.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.
What information do you need?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Is there any odour?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll 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.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
How the visit works
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which generally takes a day or two, depending on how many items. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead.
- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
- The surface is prepared and primed.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- Each item is left to cure, usually ready the next day.
How to prepare
- Open a window if you can
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Let us know which floor the room is on
How to get a price
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole suite, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

What coloured bath resurfacing costs
Prices start from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:
- How much damage there is
- The colour and finish to match
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

What we are called out for in Upper Stratton
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and many are still sound. It’s usually the colour that dates them, not the condition.
Look out for these signs:
- 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
What to look for in a quote
- If travel is included in the price
- How the room is protected while they work
- What aftercare is recommended
- How soon you can use it again
What we cannot put right
In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t 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)
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Whole bathroom suites
