Coloured bath resurfacing in Friston, done in place
A full suite is normally done in one to two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. We regularly repair whole bathroom suites, avocado, pampas and pink baths and coloured basins, and people most often call us about selling or letting a home with an old suite and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom.
All our work comes with a one-year guarantee. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

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)
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
Surfaces we repair
- Coloured basins
- Coloured shower trays
- Whole bathroom suites
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
What happens on the day
You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take one to two days for a full suite, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
- We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- Once cured, normally by the day after, the suite is ready.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear the area around the damage
- Let us know about parking or access
- Let us know which floor the room is on
Ask for a price
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.
Advice
What affects the price in Friston
Prices start from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Friston. What changes the price is:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How much damage there is
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 price
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- Where you are, by postcode
- One picture of the entire suite
- The material, if you know it
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or ring us. We will say straight away if a repair is the right fix.
