How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Venn Ottery
We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. Common call-outs are for faded or patchy colour and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, on coloured basins, avocado, pampas and pink baths and coloured shower trays.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are covered after the visit. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

What happens on the day
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job normally takes a day or two, depending on how many items. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- The room is protected and ventilated.
- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
- Each item is left to cure, typically ready the next day.
Before we arrive
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Make sure the area is dry
How to get a price
Upload a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, with your EX11 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
Advice
Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. 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.
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, and the work is guaranteed.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a coloured suite involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing turns it white without taking anything out. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:
- What kind of damage it is
- Access to the area
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Getting a price from photos
You can generally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:
- Any details about the material
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
For a price in Venn Ottery, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
Honest limits
Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. 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)
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
What we work on

Venn Ottery questions
What does coloured bath resurfacing cost?
Prices start from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Are there extra charges for Venn Ottery?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
What about the toilet?
Ask us. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we’ll advise honestly before quoting.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
