Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Fulford
Most suites take one or two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Our repair technicians work on whole bathroom suites, avocado, pampas and pink baths and coloured shower trays, and people most frequently call us about faded or patchy colour and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are covered after the visit. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Signs you need coloured bath resurfacing in Fulford
Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. It’s typically the colour that dates them, not the condition.
Look out for any of the following:
- A suite that does not match a new bathroom
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- Faded or patchy colour
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite

The process
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take one to two days for a full suite.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- 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, generally ready the following day.
How to prepare
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Keep a parking space free if you can
Ask for a price
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white turns it white without taking anything out. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Why Fulford clients choose us
- One price list for the whole UK
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- No need to remove anything
- One-year guarantee on every repair

Fulford: your questions answered
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
What information do you need?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Is there any odour?
There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send photos.
How we price coloured bath resurfacing
Resurfacing from £350. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:
- How many areas need work
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Getting a price from pictures
You can usually get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Details of any past repairs
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the suite, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
