Coloured bath resurfacing in Gislingham without replacing anything
Most suites take one or two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. We work on whole bathroom suites, coloured shower trays and avocado, pampas and pink baths, and the jobs we see most are selling or letting a home with an old suite and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white.
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Common questions in Gislingham
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Do the materials smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Will the price change on the day?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Do you come to Gislingham?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Gislingham for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Do you cover the entire of Suffolk?
We work UK-wide. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- The material and finish
- How many items we do on one visit
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Access to the area
A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Send photos for a quote
You can usually get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:
- Details of any past repairs
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A wider photo showing the whole suite
- Any details about the material
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
Work for landlords and builders
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Gislingham as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a coloured suite means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white turns it white without taking anything out. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Gislingham. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
What you get with us
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
- Straight answers about what a repair can do
- Same prices wherever you are
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

DIY kit or professional repair?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
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 usually the cheaper route.
