How we price coloured bath resurfacing
Resurfacing from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- The material and finish
- Access to the area
- How many items we do on one visit
- How many areas need work
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
How to get a fixed quote
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Where you are, by postcode
- The material, if you know it
- A wider photo showing the entire suite
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price without visiting.
About our coloured bath resurfacing in Uppermill
Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. Whether it’s selling or letting a home with an old suite and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, we can help, on avocado, pampas and pink baths, whole bathroom suites and coloured shower trays alike.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white

For landlords and businesses
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
For anyone letting property in or around Uppermill, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll price them together.
Your questions about coloured bath resurfacing in Uppermill
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
What about the toilet?
Ask us. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we’ll advise honestly before quoting.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Can a coloured bath be made white?
Yes. We resurface it in white with it left in place.
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
What happens on the day
When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job generally takes a day or two, depending on how many items. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
- We leave everything to cure, usually until the day after.
Getting ready for the visit
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Ensure the room can be ventilated

Repair or replace in Uppermill?
Replacing a coloured suite involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white turns it white without taking anything out. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. There are no surprise 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.

DIY kit or professional repair?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
Honest limits
A repair is not always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- 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 before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Coloured shower trays
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Coloured basins
- Whole bathroom suites
