Coloured suite to white in Flash, Derbyshire
We travel to Flash for resurfacing coloured baths, basins and trays in white. Nothing is taken out, and the work is guaranteed.
- Resurfacing from £350
- Faded or patchy colour
- A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing turns it white with everything left in place. Prices start from £350. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.
What you get with us
- Everything repaired in place
- Same prices wherever you are
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited
- Rooms protected and left tidy

Coloured bath resurfacing in Flash without replacing anything
Most suites take one or two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. If you are dealing with a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and selling or letting a home with an old suite, we can generally put it right.
Every job is backed for twelve months in Flash and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Flash as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

- The room is protected and ventilated.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
- Each item is left to cure, typically ready the next day.
Before we arrive

- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Advice

When to call us in Flash
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. The problem is usually the colour, not the bath.
Contact us if you’ve noticed any of these:
- A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
- Faded or patchy colour
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
Comparing quotes
- Whether they match the colour on site
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- What prep work is covered
How we price coloured bath resurfacing
Prices start from £350. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We look at:
- Access to the area
- How many areas need work
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The type of damage
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
How to get a fixed quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Natural light rather than flash
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire suite, we can give you a fixed price.
When we would advise against a repair
We won’t take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- 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’ll say what we think.
Materials we work on in Flash
- Coloured shower trays
- Coloured basins
- Whole bathroom suites
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
Common questions in Flash
Do you work in Flash?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Flash and the rest of Derbyshire. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Are there extra charges for Flash?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Do you cover the entire of Derbyshire?
We cover the whole UK, including Flash and the rest of Derbyshire. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll confirm dates.
Can you turn my avocado bath white?
Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Derbyshire.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
