Coloured bath resurfacing in Ventnor, done in place
A full suite is usually done in one to two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. We work on coloured basins, coloured shower trays and avocado, pampas and pink baths, and the jobs we see most are a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and faded or patchy colour.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll sort it. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Should you replace it?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white changes the colour without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Why Ventnor clients choose us

DIY repairs versus a professional job
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
What coloured bath resurfacing costs
Resurfacing from £350. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. This is what makes a difference:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether we combine several jobs
- What kind of damage it is
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book.
Send pictures for a quote
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- What it’s made of, if you know
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Something in shot to show the size
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.
Common questions in Ventnor
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Which areas do you work in?
All of Isle of Wight, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Can a coloured bath be made white?
Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Can you quote from photos?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we’ll quote them together.
Signs you need coloured bath resurfacing in Ventnor
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and many are still sound. The problem is generally the colour, not the bath.
You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- Faded or patchy colour
- A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
What to look for in a quote
- What preparation is included
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- How long it needs to cure
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
What happens on the day
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take one to two days for a full suite, tidy-up included.
- 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.
- The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
- We leave everything to cure, generally until the next day.
How to prepare
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Let us know about parking or access
How to get a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
Advice
Landlords, agents and businesses in Ventnor
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Ventnor use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
When a repair is not the answer
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)
