About our coloured bath resurfacing in Burnham Thorpe
We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. A full suite is generally done in one to two days. Whether it’s faded or patchy colour and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, we can typically put it right.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll sort it. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

When we’d advise against a repair
Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. We can’t fix:
- 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 photos and we’ll say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Coloured shower trays
- Coloured basins
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Whole bathroom suites
Landlord and trade work in Burnham Thorpe
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

FAQs for Burnham Thorpe
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
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.
Can you do the toilet too?
Talk to us first. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we’ll advise honestly before quoting.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
Is there any odour?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working that clears as it cures.
What areas do you cover?
All of Norfolk, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.

- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
- We leave everything to cure, normally until the following day.

Advice
What coloured bath resurfacing costs
Resurfacing from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How much damage there is
- The type of damage
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.
Quotes from your photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Something in shot to show the size
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A wider photo showing the entire suite
If you’re in Burnham Thorpe and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
What we’re called out for in Burnham Thorpe
Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and many are still sound. It’s typically the colour that dates them, not the condition.
Contact us if you’ve noticed:
- A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- Faded or patchy colour
What your quote should include
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- What happens if they find more damage
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
Should you replace it?
Replacing a coloured suite involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing turns it white without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
