Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in East Orchard
Most suites take one or two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. If you are dealing with selling or letting a home with an old suite and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, we can help, whatever the material.

What affects the price in East Orchard
Resurfacing from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How much damage there is
- What the surface is made of
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
How to get a fixed quote
Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Details of any past repairs
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Any details about the material
- A wider photo showing the entire suite
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole suite, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
FAQs for East Orchard
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in East Orchard.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.

Clients normally contact us about:
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- Faded or patchy colour
- A suite that does not match a new bathroom
Before booking anyone

Why repair rather than replace?
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. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.

What we do, step by step
We turn up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes a day or two, depending on how many items, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- The surface is prepared and primed.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- Each item is left to cure, typically ready the next day.
How to prepare
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Let us know about parking or access
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
