How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Burston
We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. Typical jobs include a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and faded or patchy colour, on coloured shower trays, avocado, pampas and pink baths and whole bathroom suites.
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Suffolk. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Your questions about coloured bath resurfacing in Burston
Can pets and children be at home?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Do you come to Burston?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Burston and the rest of Suffolk. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners.
What do you need from me?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Can tenants book a repair?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
Can you do the toilet too?
Talk to us first. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we’ll tell you what will last.
Do you need coloured bath resurfacing in Burston?
Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. The problem is typically the colour, not the bath.
Most people contact us after spotting one of these:
- A suite that does not match a new bathroom
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- Faded or patchy colour
What to look for in a quote
- How the room is protected while they work
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
- Whether they match the colour on site
- What preparation is included
Should I try a DIY kit first?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
When a repair isn’t the answer
Before booking, it’s worth knowing 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)
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Whole bathroom suites

Repair or replace in Burston?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing turns it white without taking anything out. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Read our prices page and resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.
Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- The material and finish
- How many items we do on one visit
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.
How to get a fixed price
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Natural light rather than flash
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
