About our coloured bath resurfacing in Walls
Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. If you’re dealing with selling or letting a home with an old suite and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, we can help, on coloured basins, whole bathroom suites and avocado, pampas and pink baths alike.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll sort it. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Your questions about coloured bath resurfacing in Walls
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
What areas do you cover?
Across the UK, and that includes Walls. Our prices are the same everywhere.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.

DIY kit or professional repair?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. 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.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
Signs you need coloured bath resurfacing in Walls
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and many are still sound. It’s typically the colour that dates them, not the condition.
The things customers normally mention when they call include:
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- Faded or patchy colour
- A suite that does not match a new bathroom
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
Before booking anyone
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- How long it needs to cure
- How changes to the job are handled
- Whether the price covers travel
When a repair is not the answer
Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. 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)
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
Materials we work on in Walls

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- The type of damage
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How many items we do on one visit
- The material and finish
We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Quotes from your pictures
You can generally get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Natural light rather than flash
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Where you are, by postcode
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
How it works
Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow a day or two, depending on how many items from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to look after it.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- 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, normally until the day after.
How to prepare
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
