Coloured bath resurfacing in Barningham without replacing anything
A full suite is typically done in one to two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there is no plumbing or tiling. We regularly repair avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured shower trays and coloured basins, and common reasons people contact us are selling or letting a home with an old suite and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Barningham as everywhere else we work. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

What coloured bath resurfacing costs
Prices start from £350. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The size and number of damaged areas
There are no surprise 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.
Quotes from your pictures
You can take the pictures on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Ensure they show:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Natural light rather than flash
- Any details about the material
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
When we’d advise against a repair
A repair is not always the answer, 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)
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Landlord and trade work in Barningham
Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Which areas do you work in?
We cover the entire UK, including Barningham and the rest of Suffolk. Just include your postcode and we’ll offer you dates.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send photos.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Are you accredited?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Do you charge for travel?
There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.
What happens if you find more damage?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Repairing versus replacing in Barningham
Replacing a coloured suite involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white changes the colour with everything left in place. Prices start from £350. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
