Coloured bath resurfacing in Gawber, done in place
Most suites take one or two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there is no plumbing or tiling. We regularly repair coloured shower trays, whole bathroom suites and avocado, pampas and pink baths, and common reasons people get in touch are faded or patchy colour and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we will sort it. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing turns it white without taking anything out. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
What you get with us
- A fixed quote before you book
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- Same prices wherever you are

When a repair isn’t the answer
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- 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)
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Coloured shower trays
- Whole bathroom suites
- Coloured basins
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Gawber. What changes the price is:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Access to the area
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The colour and finish to match
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.
Quotes from your pictures
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A photo taken from further back
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
For a price in Gawber, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
For landlords and businesses
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Gawber as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.
Questions from Gawber
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Which areas do you work in?
We work UK-wide, so Gawber is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Can tenants book a repair?
Of course. 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 advise honestly before quoting.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Typically, yes. The old repair comes out first.
How the visit works
Arrival times are agreed in advance. Once we’re there, the work takes one to two days for a full suite. The room is left tidy and you will know when it can be used.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- The surface is prepared and primed.
- We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
- Once cured, normally by the following day, the suite is ready.
Preparing for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
Ask for 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’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Common problems we fix in Gawber
Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. The problem is generally the colour, not the bath.
Send us a picture if you notice any of these:
- A suite that does not match a new bathroom
- Faded or patchy colour
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
Before you book anyone
- What prep work is covered
- Whether they match the colour on site
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
- Aftercare advice
Can I fix it myself?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, 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 a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
