Coloured bath resurfacing for Coltishall homes

About our coloured bath resurfacing in Coltishall

We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. A full suite is typically done in one to two days. We regularly repair coloured shower trays, coloured basins and avocado, pampas and pink baths, and the jobs we see most are a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom.

All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Should you replace it?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing turns it white with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

Why us?

  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • A fixed quote before you book
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • One visit for most repairs

What affects the price in Coltishall

Prices start from £350. We price every job individually, from your pictures. What matters most is:

  • How many areas need work
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How hard the colour is to match

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

Send photos for a quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • The material, if you know it

If you’re in Coltishall and want a price, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Signs you need coloured bath resurfacing in Coltishall

Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and many are still sound. The problem is usually the colour, not the bath.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
  • Selling or letting a home with an old suite
  • Faded or patchy colour
  • A dated coloured suite you’d like in white

What your quote should include

  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • How to care for the finish
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • Who turns up on the day

Choosing a repair company

When a repair isn’t the answer

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • 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)

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.

Materials we work on in Coltishall

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

Coltishall questions

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

Can pets and children be at home?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

Do you cover Coltishall?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Coltishall and the rest of Norfolk. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Norfolk.

Do the materials smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.

Can you turn my avocado bath white?

Yes. We resurface it in white with it left in place.

Can you do the toilet too?

Ask us. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we’ll tell you what will last.

How the visit works

We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. It normally takes one to two days for a full suite, and we will tell you if anything changes.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
  5. Once cured, normally by the next day, the suite is ready.

Before we arrive

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

Getting a price

Upload a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your NR12 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Advice

Should I try a DIY kit first?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

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

Work for landlords and builders

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Norfolk and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
