Coloured bath resurfacing in Collipy's Green, done in place

A full suite is generally done in one to two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. We are frequently asked to fix selling or letting a home with an old suite and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, across coloured shower trays, whole bathroom suites and coloured basins.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Collipy's Green and across Suffolk. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

What coloured bath resurfacing costs

Prices start from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • How much damage there is
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How hard the colour is to match

Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

How to get a fixed quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • The material, if you know it
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A wider photo showing the whole suite

Most clients in Collipy's Green get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

How to compare quotes

When a repair is not the answer

It helps to know what we can’t do too:

  • 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 will tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we repair

  • Avocado, pampas and pink baths
  • Coloured shower trays
  • Whole bathroom suites
  • Coloured basins

The process

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we are there. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes one to two days for a full suite. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
  3. The surface is prepared and primed.
  4. The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
  5. Each item is left to cure, normally ready the next day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

How to get a price

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

How do I book?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

How soon can you come?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Can you price it without visiting?

Typically, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Work for landlords and builders

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a coloured suite involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white changes the colour without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Why book with us

  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Typically one visit, start to finish
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • A fixed quote before booking
