FAQs for Ashurst Wood
Is a repair better than a new one?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
How much does coloured bath resurfacing cost in Ashurst Wood?
Prices start from £350. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Can you turn my avocado bath white?
Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.
Which areas do you work in?
We cover the whole UK, including Ashurst Wood and the rest of West Sussex. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.
Can you quote from pictures?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
Coloured bath resurfacing in Ashurst Wood, done in place
We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. A full suite is usually done in one to two days. Our technicians work on coloured basins, avocado, pampas and pink baths and coloured shower trays, and the jobs we see most are faded or patchy colour and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

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: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
When we would advise against a repair
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. We can’t 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)
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Coloured basins
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Whole bathroom suites
- Coloured shower trays

Common problems we fix in Ashurst Wood
Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and many are still sound. The problem is usually the colour, not the bath.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- Faded or patchy colour
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- A suite that does not match a new bathroom
What to look for in a quote
- Whether they match the colour on site
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
- Who will actually do the work
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. There’s no charge for travel to Ashurst Wood. The price comes down to:
- The type of damage
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How hard the colour is to match
We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Send photos for a quote
You can typically get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:
- A wider photo showing the entire suite
- Where you are, by postcode
- Any details about the material
- Details of any past repairs
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire suite, we can give you a fixed price.
The process
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. You can expect it to take a day or two, depending on how many items, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.
- The room is protected and ventilated.
- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
- Each item is left to cure, generally ready the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Make sure the area is dry
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Let us know about parking or access
Ask for a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.
