How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Gawcott
Most suites take one or two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. Common call-outs are for faded or patchy colour and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, in whole bathroom suites, avocado, pampas and pink baths and coloured basins.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
Do you need coloured bath resurfacing in Gawcott?
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. It’s normally the colour that dates them, not the condition.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
- Faded or patchy colour
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
Before you book anyone
- How to care for the finish
- What happens if they find more damage
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
- Whether they match the colour on site
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a coloured suite means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white changes the colour without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

How we price coloured bath resurfacing
Resurfacing from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- How many items we do on one visit
- Access to the area
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The material
We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Gawcott. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Quotes from your photos
Phone photos are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A wider photo showing the whole suite
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
Work for landlords and builders
If you manage property in Gawcott, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Questions from Gawcott
What areas do you cover?
We cover the whole UK, including Gawcott and the rest of Buckinghamshire. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll offer you dates.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Do you charge for travel?
There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Typically, yes. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send photos.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.
Do you cover Gawcott?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Gawcott from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Can you quote from photos?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
How the visit works
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take a day or two, depending on how many items, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
- Each item is left to cure, normally ready the next day.
Preparing for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
Ask for a price
Email us a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Gawcott, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
