Coloured bath resurfacing in Whitefield, done in place

Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. Our repair technicians work on coloured shower trays, avocado, pampas and pink baths and coloured basins, and common reasons people contact us are selling or letting a home with an old suite and faded or patchy colour.

All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Repairing versus replacing in Whitefield

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing changes the colour with everything left in place. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Why us?

  • Colour-matched on site
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish

Common questions in Whitefield

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.

Do you cover the entire of Somerset?

The entire UK, including all of Somerset. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will confirm dates.

Will there be a smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Will it make a mess?

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

What happens if you find more damage?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

How much does coloured bath resurfacing cost in Whitefield?

Resurfacing from £350. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

When we’d advise against a repair

Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. We cannot 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)

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

What we work on

  • Coloured basins

How we price coloured bath resurfacing

Resurfacing from £350. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. This is what makes a difference:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The colour and finish to match
  • How many areas need work

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Quotes from your photos

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A picture taken from further back

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire suite, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

When to call us in Whitefield

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.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

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

Comparing quotes

  • How soon you can use it again
  • Who turns up on the day
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • How changes to the job are handled

10 questions to ask before you book

Work for landlords and builders

For anyone letting property in or around Whitefield, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we will price them together.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Somerset and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

How it works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a day or two, depending on how many items. If anything looks different from your pictures, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
  5. We leave everything to cure, typically until the day after.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

How to get a price
