How coloured bath resurfacing works in Rutland
A full suite is typically done in one to two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. Typical jobs include a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and faded or patchy colour, across whole bathroom suites, avocado, pampas and pink baths and coloured shower trays.
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the 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 will talk to you before going ahead.
- The room is protected and ventilated.
- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
- Each item is left to cure, normally ready the following day.
Prices in Rutland

Landmarks near Oakham
We visit homes around Cold Overton Park, All Saints' Church and Rutland County College, among other places. You’ll also find The Wheatsheaf Public House (within half a mile north-east), Oakham CofE Primary School (under half a mile north-east) and Catmose College (0.5 miles north-west). Oakham has its own railway station: Oakham station. Further afield, we also cover the area around Burley Castle (2.8 miles north-east) and Rocks by Rail (3.5 miles north-east).
How the damage happens
Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. The problem is usually the colour, not the bath.
You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:
- Faded or patchy colour
- A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
For landlords and businesses
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.
Repair or replace?
Replacing a coloured suite means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white changes the colour without taking anything out.
What your quote should include
- How soon you can use it again
- What protection goes down before work starts
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
Can I fix it myself?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
What coloured bath resurfacing costs
Resurfacing from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Access to the area
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Unusual colours or finishes
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
How to get a fixed quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- A photo taken from further back
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Something in shot to show the size
There’s 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.
Rutland questions
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
How do I book?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
What about the toilet?
Talk to us first. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we’ll advise honestly before quoting.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.
