- The room is protected and ventilated.
- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- We prepare 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.

Advice
About our coloured bath resurfacing in Briningham
Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. If you’re dealing with selling or letting a home with an old suite and faded or patchy colour, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.
All our work comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Norfolk. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Briningham questions
Can you turn my avocado bath white?
Yes. We resurface it in white with it left in place.
Is there any odour?
There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.
What happens next?
You will get a fixed quote back, plus dates. You are under no obligation.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Can you quote from photos?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
What does coloured bath resurfacing cost?
Prices start from £350. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
What affects the price in Briningham
Prices start from £350. There’s no charge for travel to Briningham. The price comes down to:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The material and finish
- How much damage there is
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.
Send pictures for a quote
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:
- A wider photo showing the whole suite
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Natural light rather than flash
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole suite, we can price the job the same day in most cases.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a coloured suite involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing changes the colour without taking anything out. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not 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, and the work is guaranteed.
