Coloured Bath Resurfacing for Widewall homes
Resurfacing coloured baths, basins and trays in white at your home in Widewall, with a one-year guarantee on every repair.
- Resurfacing from £350
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- A suite that does not match a new bathroom
Coloured bath resurfacing in Widewall without replacing anything
A full suite is normally done in one to two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there is no plumbing or tiling. We work on coloured basins, avocado, pampas and pink baths and coloured shower trays, and common reasons people contact us are a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Widewall and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Repairing versus replacing in Widewall
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing turns it white without taking anything out. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
What you get with us
- No extra charge for your area
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- Straight answers about what a repair can do
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited

For landlords and businesses
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- The colour and finish to match
- The type of damage
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Doing more than one item at once
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Quotes from your photos
Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A wider photo showing the whole suite
- What it’s made of, if you know
There’s 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.

Questions from Widewall
How much does coloured bath resurfacing cost in Widewall?
Prices start from £350. Every job gets a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item with your KW17 postcode.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.
Do you cover the entire of the Orkney Islands?
We work UK-wide, so Widewall is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Can you turn my avocado bath white?
Yes. We resurface it in white with it left in place.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Is there a call-out fee?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
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, a professional repair is worth it.
What else we do in Widewall
What a repair can’t fix
Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs will not 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)
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.
Materials we repair
- Coloured shower trays
- Whole bathroom suites
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Coloured basins
What happens on the day
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for one to two days for a full suite from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to care for it.
- The room is protected and ventilated.
- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- The surface is prepared and primed.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- Once cured, normally by the day after, the suite is ready.
Before we arrive
- Open a window if you can
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Point us to the nearest place to park
How to get a price
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price without visiting.
