Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a coloured suite means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing turns it white without taking anything out. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Coloured bath resurfacing in Danestone, 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. Our technicians work on whole bathroom suites, coloured basins and avocado, pampas and pink baths, and the jobs we see most are faded or patchy colour and selling or letting a home with an old suite.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. We do not charge extra for travel to Danestone. The price depends on:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How many areas need work
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Send photos for a quote
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- A photo taken from further back
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Any details about the material
- Natural light rather than flash
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price without visiting.
What a repair can’t fix
In fairness, some problems need a different 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.

Common problems we fix in Danestone
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and many are still sound. It’s generally the colour that dates them, not the condition.
You may need us if you’ve spotted:
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- Faded or patchy colour
- A suite that does not match a new bathroom
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white

DIY kit or professional repair?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed 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.
Questions from Danestone
Can you do the toilet too?
Ask us. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we will tell you what will last.
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
What happens if you find more damage?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
What does coloured bath resurfacing cost?
Prices start from £350. Every job gets a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
What happens next?
We come back with a fixed quote. There is no obligation to book.
What information do you need?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
The process
When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take one to two days for a full suite. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- 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.
- Once cured, normally by the following day, the suite is ready.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
Getting a price
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
