Coloured bath resurfacing in Walkford without replacing anything
Most suites take one or two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. We work on coloured basins, whole bathroom suites and coloured shower trays, and common reasons people contact us are a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and selling or letting a home with an old suite.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

When we’d advise against a repair
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- 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.
Materials we repair
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Coloured shower trays
- Whole bathroom suites
- Coloured basins
Should you replace it?
Replacing a coloured suite involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white turns it white with everything left in place. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Walkford. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
What you get with us
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
- We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- Free fixed quotes from pictures

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

- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- How your room will be protected

- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.

Common questions in Walkford
Do the materials smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Which areas do you work in?
Across the UK, and that includes Walkford. Prices don’t change with location.
How do I book?
Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.
Can you turn my avocado bath white?
Yes. We resurface it in white with it left in place.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Generally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
What coloured bath resurfacing costs
Resurfacing from £350. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- How hard the colour is to match
- What kind of damage it is
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.
Getting a price from photos
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A picture taken from further back
For a price in Walkford, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

What else we do in Walkford
Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
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.
