- Resurfacing from £350
- A suite that does not match a new bathroom
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
What coloured bath resurfacing costs
Resurfacing from £350. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How many areas need work
- What kind of damage it is
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Quotes from your photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- Natural light rather than flash
- Something in shot to show the size
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A wider photo showing the whole suite
To get a price, send two or three photos through our quote form or call us. We will say straight away whether it can be repaired.
Coloured bath resurfacing in Goose Green, done in place
Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. A full suite is typically done in one to two days. We’re often asked to fix faded or patchy colour and selling or letting a home with an old suite, across coloured basins, coloured shower trays and whole bathroom suites.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will come back. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Common problems we fix in Goose Green
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. It’s generally the colour that dates them, not the condition.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- A suite that does not match a new bathroom
- Faded or patchy colour
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
What your quote should include
- How the room is protected while they work
- What aftercare is recommended
- When it can be used again
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
For landlords and businesses
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a coloured suite means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white turns it white with everything left in place. Prices start from £350. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Goose Green. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Can I fix it myself?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
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, then guarantee it for a year.
