Coloured Bath Resurfacing in Birch Green
Our repair technicians come to Birch Green for resurfacing coloured baths, basins and trays in white. Everything is done in place, with a one-year guarantee.
- Resurfacing from £350
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
Can I fix it myself?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
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.
How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Birch Green
A full suite is generally done in one to two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. We work on whole bathroom suites, avocado, pampas and pink baths and coloured shower trays, and the jobs we see most are selling or letting a home with an old suite and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we will sort it. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

What else we do in Birch Green
How we price coloured bath resurfacing
Resurfacing from £350. There is no area surcharge for Birch Green. What changes the price is:
- Access to the area
- The material and finish
- How many items we do on one visit
- How many areas need work
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Getting a price from photos
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Natural light rather than flash
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole suite, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
Common problems we fix in Birch Green
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.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- Faded or patchy colour
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
What your quote should include

- How long the guarantee is and what it covers

Work for landlords and builders
For anyone letting property in or around Birch Green, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll price them together.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Repair or replace in Birch Green?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white changes the colour without taking anything out. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

When a repair is not the answer
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs won’t 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)
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.
Surfaces we repair
- Coloured basins
- Coloured shower trays
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Whole bathroom suites
Questions from Birch Green
Can you turn my avocado bath white?
Yes. We resurface it in white with it left in place.
Can you do the toilet too?
Ask us. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we’ll tell you what will last.
Do you cover the whole of Essex?
The whole UK, including all of Essex. Send your postcode with your photos and we will confirm dates.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send pictures.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.
How the visit works
Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for a day or two, depending on how many items from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
- We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- Each item is left to cure, generally ready the next day.
Preparing for the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Have a window or extractor fan available
