We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. We regularly repair avocado, pampas and pink baths, whole bathroom suites and coloured shower trays, and the jobs we see most are a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and selling or letting a home with an old suite.

Your questions about coloured bath resurfacing in East Lockinge
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Do you cover East Lockinge?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to East Lockinge. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It clears as the materials cure.
Will the price change on the day?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Can a coloured bath be made white?
Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.
Can pets and children be at home?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Can you do the toilet too?
Talk to us first. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we’ll advise honestly before quoting.
What affects the price in East Lockinge
Resurfacing from £350. There is no charge for travel to East Lockinge. The price comes down to:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How many items we do on one visit
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The colour and finish to match
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.
Getting a price from photos
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- Details of any past repairs
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Any details about the material
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.
What we’re called out for in East Lockinge
Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. The problem is generally the colour, not the bath.
Send us a photo if you notice any of these:
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- A suite that does not match a new bathroom
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- Faded or patchy colour
What your quote should include
- Who will actually do the work
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- How long it needs to cure
- If travel is included in the price
What a repair can’t fix
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- 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 will say what we think before booking.

Should you replace it?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white changes the colour with everything left in place. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. 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.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
