Coloured bath resurfacing near Yelden

DIY kit or professional repair?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. 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.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

Coloured bath resurfacing in Yelden without replacing anything

Most suites take one or two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Common call-outs are for faded or patchy colour and selling or letting a home with an old suite, in coloured basins, avocado, pampas and pink baths and coloured shower trays.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Yelden as everywhere else we work. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

How it works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which typically takes a day or two, depending on how many items. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
  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, usually until the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Let us know about parking or access

Ask for a price

Send us photos of the damage and one of the whole item, with your MK44 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

What coloured bath resurfacing costs

Prices start from £350. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:

  • The material and finish
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether we combine several jobs

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.

Getting a price from photos

You can usually get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole suite, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Yelden: your questions answered

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Can you do the toilet too?

Can you turn my avocado bath white?

Yes. We resurface it in white with it left in place.

What areas do you cover?

Everywhere in the UK, Yelden included. There is no extra charge for travel.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

When can you do it?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Are there extra charges for Yelden?

There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Repair or replace in Yelden?

Replacing a coloured suite means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white turns it white without taking anything out. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking.

Why us?

  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Colour-matched on site
  • Most jobs done in one visit

See our prices page or resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.

What a repair cannot fix

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • 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 will tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we repair

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