Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Carleton Forehoe
A full suite is generally done in one to two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Our repair technicians work on coloured shower trays, avocado, pampas and pink baths and whole bathroom suites, and people most often call us about a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Repair or replace in Carleton Forehoe?
Replacing a coloured suite involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white changes the colour with everything left in place. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

How it works
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, and get on with the job, which generally takes a day or two, depending on how many items. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- We clean, degrease and repair any 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, generally until the next day.
Before we arrive
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Keep a parking space free if you can
Getting a price
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
Advice
DIY kit or professional repair?
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.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. 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.
Signs you need coloured bath resurfacing in Carleton Forehoe
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. It’s usually the colour that dates them, not the condition.
Clients normally contact us about:
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
- Faded or patchy colour
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
Questions to ask before booking
- How the colour is matched
- When it can be used again
- What preparation is included
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
For landlords and businesses
For anyone letting property in or around Carleton Forehoe, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we will price them together.
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
When we would advise against a repair
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- 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 photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
Materials we repair
- Coloured shower trays
- Coloured basins
- Whole bathroom suites
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How much damage there is
- What kind of damage it is
- The material and finish
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Getting a price from pictures
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A wider photo showing the whole suite
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire suite, we can give you a fixed price.
