Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Woodstone Village
We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there is no plumbing or tiling. A full suite is normally done in one to two days. Common call-outs are for a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and selling or letting a home with an old suite, in avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured basins and whole bathroom suites.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Woodstone Village and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a coloured suite involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing turns it white without taking anything out. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Woodstone Village. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

- 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)
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

How we price coloured bath resurfacing
Prices start from £350. There is no charge for travel to Woodstone Village. The price comes down to:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The type of damage
- How easy the damage is to reach
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Quotes from your pictures
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:
- A picture taken from further back
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- What it’s made of, if you know
- One sharp close-up of the damage
To get a price, send two or three pictures using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
The process
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a day or two, depending on how many items. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- The surface is prepared and primed.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- We leave everything to cure, usually until the following day.
Before we arrive
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
Getting a price
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
Related advice
Can I fix it myself?
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 frequently lifts.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
