Your questions about coloured bath resurfacing in Furnace Green
Do the materials smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
What happens if you find more damage?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
What happens after I send photos?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote.
Can you turn my avocado bath white?
Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.
What about the toilet?
Ask us. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we will tell you what will last.
Which areas do you work in?
All of West Sussex, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
Signs you need coloured bath resurfacing in Furnace Green

- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- Faded or patchy colour
What your quote should include
- What protection goes down before work starts
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- What preparation is included
- Whether they match the colour on site
How it works
Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow a day or two, depending on how many items from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and how to look after it.
- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
- Each item is left to cure, usually ready the next day.
How to prepare
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
Ask for a price
Most clients in Furnace Green get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Can I fix it myself?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
