- Items cracked right through
- Fittings and taps (these are masked, not recoloured)

Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. A full suite is normally done in one to two days. We work on avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured shower trays and coloured basins, and common reasons people contact us are selling or letting a home with an old suite and faded or patchy colour.

Repairing versus replacing in Gamlingay
Replacing a coloured suite involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing turns it white with everything left in place. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Can you repair several things at once?

Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
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.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
What we are called out for in Gamlingay
Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and many are still sound. It’s typically the colour that dates them, not the condition.
The most common problems we are called about are:
- 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
Before booking anyone
- How to care for the finish
- What protection goes down before work starts
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- Who turns up on the day
Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How much damage there is
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Getting a price from photos
You can normally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- One sharp close-up of the damage
We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.
What we do, step by step
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. You can expect it to take a day or two, depending on how many items.
- 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.
- The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
- Once cured, normally by the next day, the suite is ready.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Ensure the area is dry
Ask for a price
