Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a coloured suite involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white turns it white without taking anything out. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Coloured bath resurfacing in Blakestones, done in place
Most suites take one or two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. Our repair technicians work on whole bathroom suites, coloured basins and coloured shower trays, and common reasons people get in touch are faded or patchy colour and selling or letting a home with an old suite.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Common problems we fix in Blakestones
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and many are still sound. It’s normally the colour that dates them, not the condition.
Most people contact us after spotting something like this:
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- Faded or patchy colour
- A suite that does not match a new bathroom
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white

What we can’t put right
We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- 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 pictures and we will say what we think before booking.
Materials we work on in Blakestones
- Whole bathroom suites

What happens on the day
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a day or two, depending on how many items. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- The surface is prepared and primed.
- The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
- Each item is left to cure, typically ready the following day.
How to prepare
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Ensure the area is dry
- Point us to the nearest place to park

What else we do in Blakestones
Can I fix it myself?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Resurfacing from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:

Can you turn my avocado bath white?
Yes. We resurface it in white with it left in place.
