Coloured suite to white in Broxted, Essex
We travel to Broxted for resurfacing coloured baths, basins and trays in white. Nothing is taken out, with a one-year guarantee.
- Resurfacing from £350
- A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Broxted
Most suites take one or two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. We work on avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured shower trays and coloured basins, and people most often call us about a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and selling or letting a home with an old suite.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Broxted questions
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
What happens if you find more damage?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Can you quote from photos?
Usually, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Can you turn my avocado bath white?
Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.
How much does coloured bath resurfacing cost in Broxted?
Resurfacing from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Do the materials smell?
Expect a mild smell while we are working, which fades afterwards.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
What affects the price in Broxted
Resurfacing from £350. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether we combine several jobs
- What the surface is made of
We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Quotes from your photos
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- One picture of the whole suite
- Natural light rather than flash
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

Do you need coloured bath resurfacing in Broxted?
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. It’s generally the colour that dates them, not the condition.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- Faded or patchy colour
- A suite that does not match a new bathroom
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- What happens if they find more damage
- Who turns up on the day
- How soon you can use it again
When we would advise against a repair
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- 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 photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
What we work on
- Coloured shower trays
- Whole bathroom suites
- Coloured basins
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a coloured suite involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing turns it white without taking anything out. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Why Broxted customers choose us
- We come to you, anywhere in the UK
- Most jobs done in one visit
- Fixed prices from your photos
- No need to remove anything

Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
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 we open a single tin. Most visits take a day or two, depending on how many items, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- The room is protected and ventilated.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
- We leave everything to cure, typically until the following day.
How to prepare
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
Getting a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole suite, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
