About our coloured bath resurfacing in Gorleston-on-Sea

A full suite is usually done in one to two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. We work on coloured basins, whole bathroom suites and avocado, pampas and pink baths, and common reasons people contact us are selling or letting a home with an old suite and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will come back. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

FAQs for Gorleston-on-Sea

Will the price change on the day?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

How do I book?

Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Repair or replace in Gorleston-on-Sea?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing turns it white without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.

Why us?

  • One visit for most repairs
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide

Work for landlords and builders

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.

Common problems we fix in Gorleston-on-Sea

Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and many are still sound. It’s usually the colour that dates them, not the condition.

If you can see any of these, send us a picture:

  • A suite that does not 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

Questions to ask before you book

  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match

Our hiring checklist

What coloured bath resurfacing costs

Prices start from £350. We give every job a fixed price from photos. This is what makes a difference:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The colour and finish to match
  • The material
  • The type of damage

A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed price

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Where you are, by postcode

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the suite, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

What we cannot put right

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

  • 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)

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we work on in Gorleston-on-Sea

The process

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Allow one to two days for a full suite. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
  5. Once cured, normally by the next day, the suite is ready.

Before we arrive

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

How to get a price

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.

Can I fix it myself?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
