Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Can you price it without visiting?

How much does coloured bath resurfacing cost in Victoria?

Prices start from £350. Every job gets a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item and your postcode.

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it usually saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Can a coloured bath be made white?

Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.

How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Victoria

A full suite is typically done in one to two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there is no plumbing or tiling. We regularly repair whole bathroom suites, avocado, pampas and pink baths and coloured shower trays, and people most often call us about a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and selling or letting a home with an old suite.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Victoria and across Newport. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

What happens on the day

You do not need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. It normally takes one to two days for a full suite, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
  3. We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
  5. Once cured, normally by the following day, the suite is ready.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

How to get a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the suite, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

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 isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

Do you need coloured bath resurfacing in Victoria?

Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. It’s normally the colour that dates them, not the condition.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
  • Faded or patchy colour
  • Selling or letting a home with an old suite
  • A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom

Questions to ask before booking

  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • What prep work is covered
  • What protection goes down before work starts

Our hiring checklist

Should you replace it?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing changes the colour 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. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

What you get with us

  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • One visit for most repairs
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • Work done at your home or business

See our prices page or guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.

What affects the price in Victoria

Resurfacing from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Victoria. What changes the price is:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Access to the area
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The material and finish

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Send pictures for a quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

To get a price, send a couple of photos using our quote form or ring us. We’ll say immediately whether it can be repaired.

When a repair isn’t the answer

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’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)

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.

Materials we work on in Victoria

  • Coloured basins
  • Whole bathroom suites
  • Coloured shower trays
  • Avocado, pampas and pink baths

Work for landlords and builders

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Victoria as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
