Coloured suite to white in Chilswell, Oxfordshire
Resurfacing coloured baths, basins and trays in white at your home in Chilswell, with a one-year guarantee on every repair.
- Resurfacing from £350
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- A suite that does not match a new bathroom
How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Chilswell
We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. A full suite is typically done in one to two days. Common call-outs are for faded or patchy colour and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, in coloured shower trays, whole bathroom suites and avocado, pampas and pink baths.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are covered after the visit. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Landlord and trade work in Chilswell
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Chilswell use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Oxfordshire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
What affects the price in Chilswell
Prices start from £350. There is no charge for travel to Chilswell. The price depends on:
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Quotes from your pictures
You can take the pictures on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Make sure they show:
- A picture taken from further back
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Natural light rather than flash
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
To get a price, send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
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 won’t last.
Common problems we fix in Chilswell
Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. The problem is normally the colour, not the bath.
The most common problems we are called about are:
- Faded or patchy colour
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
Before you book anyone
- Aftercare advice
- Whether they match the colour on site
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- How the room is protected while they work
Should you replace it?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white turns it white with everything left in place. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Chilswell. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Why book with us
- Everything repaired in place
- Straight answers about what a repair can do
- Colour-matched on site
- Every repair guaranteed for a year

Chilswell questions
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
