Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white changes the colour without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Coloured bath resurfacing in Dowsdale, done in place
Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. A full suite is usually done in one to two days. Typical jobs include a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and selling or letting a home with an old suite, in coloured shower trays, whole bathroom suites and coloured basins.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
How the visit works
Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a day or two, depending on how many items, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
- Once cured, normally by the day after, the suite is ready.
How to prepare
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Advice
What else we do in Dowsdale
Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The material and finish
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The size and number of damaged areas
Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Quotes from your photos
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
Work for landlords and builders
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Dowsdale as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Signs you need coloured bath resurfacing in Dowsdale
Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. The problem is typically the colour, not the bath.
Common reasons people in Dowsdale contact us are:
- Faded or patchy colour
- A suite that does not 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
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- Who will actually do the work
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
What we can’t put right
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:
- 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 pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Coloured shower trays
