About our coloured bath resurfacing in Elveden
A full suite is typically done in one to two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there is no plumbing or tiling. We are frequently asked to fix a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, across coloured shower trays, avocado, pampas and pink baths and whole bathroom suites.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll come back. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

What coloured bath resurfacing costs
Prices start from £350. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. The main factors are:
- Access to the area
- The size and number of damaged areas
- What kind of damage it is
- The material
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
How to get a fixed price
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- One picture of the whole suite
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- The material, if you know it
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole suite, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is 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 photos.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Common questions in Elveden
Do you cover the entire of Norfolk?
Everywhere in the UK, Elveden included. There’s no extra charge for travel.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Can you price it without visiting?
Typically, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.
Is there any odour?
Expect a mild smell while we are working, which fades afterwards.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
How do I book?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Repair or replace in Elveden?
Replacing a coloured suite means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white changes the colour with everything left in place. Prices start from £350. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Elveden. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

When we’d advise against a repair
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- 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 pictures and we will say what we think before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Coloured basins
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Coloured shower trays
- Whole bathroom suites
What we’re called out for in Elveden
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and many are still sound. The problem is typically the colour, not the bath.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- 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
What to look for in a quote
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- How soon you can use it again
- How your room will be protected
How the visit works
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we’re there. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes one to two days for a full suite. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- The room is protected and ventilated.
- We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
- Once cured, normally by the following day, the suite is ready.
Before we arrive
- Let us know about parking or access
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Have a window or extractor fan available
How to get a price
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
