About our coloured bath resurfacing in Cowfold
We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. Whether it’s a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and selling or letting a home with an old suite, we can help.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will sort it. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

What happens on the day
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for a day or two, depending on how many items. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- The room is protected and ventilated.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
- Each item is left to cure, usually ready the next day.
How to prepare
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Point us to the nearest place to park
How to get a price

What a repair cannot fix
In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t 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 pictures and we’ll say what we think.

Can I fix it myself?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. There is no charge for travel to Cowfold. The price comes down to:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Doing more than one item at once
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Quotes from your pictures
Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Where you are, by postcode
- Any details about the material
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
Most customers in Cowfold get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a coloured suite involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing turns it white with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

For landlords and businesses
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will handle the rest.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Cowfold use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.
When to call us in Cowfold
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and many are still sound. The problem is generally the colour, not the bath.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Faded or patchy colour
- A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
Questions to ask before booking
- How your room will be protected
- Whether the price covers travel
- Who will actually do the work
- Whether they match the colour on site
FAQs for Cowfold
What happens if you find more damage?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
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.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.
Are there extra charges for Cowfold?
We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
