Coloured bath resurfacing in Garboldisham without replacing anything
A full suite is generally done in one to two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. Typical jobs include faded or patchy colour and selling or letting a home with an old suite, in coloured shower trays, avocado, pampas and pink baths and whole bathroom suites.
Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Suffolk. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a coloured suite means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white turns it white without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

- Colour mixed on the day to match

Garboldisham questions
Can a coloured bath be made white?
Yes. We resurface it in white with it left in place.
How quickly can you book me in?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
How do I book?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.
Do you come to Garboldisham?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Garboldisham. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
What about the toilet?
Talk to us first. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we will tell you what will last.

- Items cracked right through

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

What we do, step by step
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. It normally takes one to two days for a full suite, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
- The surface is prepared and primed.
- We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
- We leave everything to cure, usually until the next day.
How to prepare
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Point us to the nearest place to park
How to get a price
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Advice
DIY kit or professional repair?
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 doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
What affects the price in Garboldisham
Prices start from £350. There is no area surcharge for Garboldisham. The price reflects:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How many areas need work
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Quotes from your photos
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A wider photo showing the whole suite
- Any details about the material
- Where you are, by postcode
Upload pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your IP22 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
For landlords and businesses
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details.
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
