Trusted coloured bath resurfacing in Groton

Coloured bath resurfacing in Groton without replacing anything

We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. A full suite is generally done in one to two days. Our repair technicians work on coloured basins, whole bathroom suites and coloured shower trays, and common reasons people get in touch are faded or patchy colour and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom.

Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

FAQs for Groton

Which areas do you work in?

All of Suffolk, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.

Do you work in Groton?

We do. Technicians travel to Groton from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Will the price change on the day?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.

Is my repair covered?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

What information do you need?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Can you turn my avocado bath white?

Yes. We resurface it in white with it left in place.

For landlords and businesses

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.

Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

What we’re called out for in Groton

Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. It’s usually the colour that dates them, not the condition.

Common reasons people in Groton contact us are:

  • Faded or patchy colour
  • A suite that does not match a new bathroom
  • Selling or letting a home with an old suite
  • A dated coloured suite you’d like in white

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • What preparation is included
  • How soon you can use it again

Our hiring checklist

Repair or replace: which is better?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white turns it white without taking anything out. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

  • Everything repaired in place

Read our prices page and bath cost comparison.

Can I fix it myself?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

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, and the work is guaranteed.

How we price coloured bath resurfacing

Resurfacing from £350. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. The main factors are:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Access to the area
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

How to get a fixed price

Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Any details about the material

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price without visiting.

How it works

Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a day or two, depending on how many items, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
  3. We key 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.

How to prepare

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

How to get a price

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
