Repairing versus replacing in Cowes
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white turns it white without taking anything out. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts 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.
What you get with us
- Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited
- No extra charge for your area
- Every repair guaranteed for a year

Coloured bath resurfacing in Cowes, done in place
Most suites take one or two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. Whether it’s a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, we can help, whatever the material.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Can I fix it myself?
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.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

Common problems we fix in Cowes
Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. It’s normally the colour that dates them, not the condition.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- A suite that does not match a new bathroom
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- Faded or patchy colour
Questions to ask before you book
- Aftercare advice
- Whether they match the colour on site
- When it can be used again
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
How it works
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, 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’ll keep you posted as we go.
- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
- Once cured, normally by the next day, the suite is ready.
How to prepare
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
Ask for a price
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
Advice
What a repair cannot fix
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)
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.
What we work on
- Coloured basins
- Coloured shower trays
- Whole bathroom suites
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- The material and finish
- Doing more than one item at once
- The type of damage
- The size and number of damaged areas
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Cowes. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Quotes from your pictures
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:
- Details of any past repairs
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
