When to call us in Baylham
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and many are still sound. The problem is usually the colour, not the bath.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
- Faded or patchy colour

How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Baylham
A full suite is usually done in one to two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Whether it’s a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and faded or patchy colour, we can typically put it right, on whole bathroom suites, coloured shower trays and coloured basins alike.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a coloured suite means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white turns it white without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

What a repair can’t fix
Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. 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 pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
Surfaces we repair
- Whole bathroom suites
- Coloured basins
- Coloured shower trays
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
What affects the price in Baylham
Prices start from £350. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We take into account:
- Doing more than one item at once
- What the surface is made of
- How many areas need work
- The colour and finish to match
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Send photos for a quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- A wider photo showing the entire suite
- Details of any past repairs
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
FAQs for Baylham
How do I get a price for coloured bath resurfacing in Baylham?
Prices start from £350. Every job gets a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Do you cover the whole of Suffolk?
We cover the entire UK, including Baylham and the rest of Suffolk. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll offer you dates.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
How do I book?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Can you turn my avocado bath white?
Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and you’ll get one combined price.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
Landlord and trade work in Baylham
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.
If you manage property in Baylham, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we will come back with a combined price.
How the visit works
We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes a day or two, depending on how many items, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
- Each item is left to cure, normally ready the day after.
How to prepare
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the suite, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
