How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Clapgate
Most suites take one or two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. We regularly repair coloured shower trays, avocado, pampas and pink baths and whole bathroom suites, and the jobs we see most are selling or letting a home with an old suite and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom.
Every job is backed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Questions from Clapgate
Which areas do you work in?
Everywhere in the UK, Clapgate included. There is no extra charge for travel.
Do you come to Clapgate?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Clapgate and the rest of Hertfordshire. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
How do I get a price for coloured bath resurfacing in Clapgate?
Prices start from £350. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Will the price change on the day?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Can you do the toilet too?
Talk to us first. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we will tell you what will last.

What we are called out for in Clapgate
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’re called about are:
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- A suite that does not match a new bathroom
- Faded or patchy colour
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
Comparing quotes
- Whether the price covers travel
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- How your room will be protected
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
The process
We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. Allow one to two days for a full suite, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.
- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- Once cured, normally by the day after, the suite is ready.
Before we arrive
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Let us know if it has been repaired before

DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
Work for landlords and builders
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Hertfordshire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
What coloured bath resurfacing costs
Resurfacing from £350. There is no charge for travel to Clapgate. The price comes down to:
- How many areas need work
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Send pictures for a quote
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- The material, if you know it
- Details of any past repairs
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A picture taken from further back
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a coloured suite means 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. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.
Why us?
- We leave the room as we found it
- One visit for most repairs
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
- Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide

What we can’t put right
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

- Items cracked right through
- Fittings and taps (these are masked, not recoloured)
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Coloured basins
- Whole bathroom suites
