Coloured suite to white in Halstead, Essex
Resurfacing coloured baths, basins and trays in white at your home in Halstead, with a one-year guarantee on every repair.
- Resurfacing from £350
- Faded or patchy colour
- A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
Should you replace it?
Replacing a coloured suite 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. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.
What you get with us
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- Straight answers about what a repair can do
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- Nothing taken out or refitted

Coloured bath resurfacing in Halstead without replacing anything
Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. We’re frequently asked to fix a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, across coloured shower trays, avocado, pampas and pink baths and whole bathroom suites.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Halstead: your questions answered
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
Do you come to Halstead?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Halstead. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
What information do you need?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.
What happens if you find more damage?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Do you charge for travel?
We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.
What coloured bath resurfacing costs
Resurfacing from £350. We give every job a fixed price from photos. This is what makes a difference:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The type of damage
- How many areas need work
- What the surface is made of
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Getting a price from photos
Two or three clear photos are normally enough. It helps if you send:
- The material, if you know it
- Details of any past repairs
- A photo taken from further back
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
Email us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your CO9 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
When to call us in Halstead
Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. The problem is usually the colour, not the bath.
People typically call us when they notice something like this:
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- Faded or patchy colour
- A suite that does not match a new bathroom
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
Before you book anyone
- What aftercare is recommended
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- If travel is included in the price

Landlord and trade work in Halstead
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
What a repair can’t fix
We will not take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- 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 will tell you honestly.
Materials we work on in Halstead
- Coloured basins

The process
Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes one to two days for a full suite, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
- The surface is prepared and primed.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- We leave everything to cure, usually until the next day.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
Getting a price
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire suite, we can give you a fixed price.
