A full suite is normally done in one to two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Whether it’s faded or patchy colour and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, we can help, whatever the material.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Duston: your questions answered

Do you cover the entire of Northamptonshire?

The whole UK, including all of Northamptonshire. Just include your postcode and we’ll offer you dates.

Can you turn my avocado bath white?

Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Do you come to Duston?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Duston and the rest of Northamptonshire. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Are there extra charges for Duston?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

How much does coloured bath resurfacing cost in Duston?

Prices start from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Usually, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

What we are called out for in Duston

Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. The problem is usually the colour, not the bath.

Common reasons people in Duston contact us include:

  • Selling or letting a home with an old suite
  • A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
  • A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
  • Faded or patchy colour

Our hiring checklist

What affects the price in Duston

Prices start from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How many areas need work
  • The material and finish
  • What kind of damage it is

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Duston. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Quotes from your photos

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:

  • A picture taken from further back
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

Upload photos of the damage and one of the whole item, with your NN5 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing turns it white with everything left in place. Prices start from £350. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

What you get with us

  • One visit for most repairs
  • A fixed quote before you book
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Nothing taken out or refitted

See our prices page or guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.

The process

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, which typically takes a day or two, depending on how many items. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
  3. We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
  5. Each item is left to cure, usually ready the day after.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Getting a price

There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

For landlords and businesses

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.

For anyone letting property in or around Duston, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we will come back with a combined price.

When a repair is not the answer

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits 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 you book.

What we work on

  • Coloured shower trays
  • Avocado, pampas and pink baths
  • Coloured basins
  • Whole bathroom suites

DIY repairs versus a professional job

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. 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.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
