Common problems we fix in Glasbury
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.
People generally call us after spotting one of these:
- Faded or patchy colour
- A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
Before you book anyone
- How your room will be protected
- Whether they match the colour on site
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- How soon you can use it again
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a coloured suite means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing changes the colour without taking anything out. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Glasbury questions
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
What does coloured bath resurfacing cost?
Prices start from £350. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.
Can you turn my avocado bath white?
Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.
Do you come to Glasbury?
We do. We send a technician to Glasbury for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Is there a guarantee?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Will the price change on the day?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.

What else we do in Glasbury
What coloured bath resurfacing costs
Resurfacing from £350. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The material and finish
- Doing more than one item at once
- Access to the area
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Send photos for a quote
Two or three clear photos are usually enough. It helps if you send:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Where you are, by postcode
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.
What happens on the day
We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. It normally takes one to two days for a full suite.
- The room is protected and ventilated.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
- Once cured, normally by the following day, the suite is ready.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
How to get a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire suite, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

DIY kit or professional repair?
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.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
