What coloured bath resurfacing costs

Prices start from £350. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • What the surface is made of
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How many areas need work

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Any details about the material
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Most clients in Western Park get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

About our coloured bath resurfacing in Western Park

Most suites take one or two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. Common call-outs are for faded or patchy colour and selling or letting a home with an old suite, on whole bathroom suites, coloured shower trays and avocado, pampas and pink baths.

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

What happens on the day

Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job 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 what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
  5. We leave everything to cure, usually until the day after.

How to prepare

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Ask for a price

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Work for landlords and builders

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a coloured suite means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing turns it white with everything left in place. Prices start from £350. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.

Why book with us

  • Work done at your home or business
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Typically one visit, start to finish
  • Colour-matched on site

When we would advise against a repair

Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:

  • 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)

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

Materials we repair

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

Common problems we fix in Western Park

Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and many are still sound. The problem is normally the colour, not the bath.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

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

What to look for in a quote

  • How changes to the job are handled
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • Aftercare advice
  • Who will actually do the work

Our hiring checklist

Questions from Western Park

Do you charge for travel?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Can a coloured bath be made white?

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

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first.

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Are you accredited?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

How do I book?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.

Will there be a smell?

Expect a mild smell while we are working that clears as it cures.

Can I fix it myself?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
