Should you replace it?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing changes the colour with everything left in place. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Desborough. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Coloured bath resurfacing in Desborough, done in place
Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. A full suite is typically done in one to two days. Common call-outs are for selling or letting a home with an old suite and faded or patchy colour, on coloured basins, coloured shower trays and whole bathroom suites.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

When to call us in Desborough
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. It’s typically the colour that dates them, not the condition.
You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:
- A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
- Faded or patchy colour
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- Who will actually do the work
How we price coloured bath resurfacing
Prices start from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- Access to the area
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- What kind of damage it is
- What the surface is made of
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Getting a price from pictures
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:
- Something in shot to show the size
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire suite, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
Landlord and trade work in Desborough
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Desborough as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Your questions about coloured bath resurfacing in Desborough
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Do you work in Desborough?
We do. Repair technicians travel to Desborough from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Can you turn my avocado bath white?
Yes. We resurface it in white with it left in place.
Will there be a smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.
When we would advise against a repair
We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:
- 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 photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
Materials we repair
- Whole bathroom suites
- Coloured basins
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Coloured shower trays
What we do, step by step
There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take one to two days for a full suite.
- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- Once cured, normally by the following day, the suite is ready.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
How to get a price
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
