Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Harleston
Most suites take one or two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Our technicians work on coloured shower trays, avocado, pampas and pink baths and whole bathroom suites, and the jobs we see most are selling or letting a home with an old suite and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom.
All our work comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Norfolk. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

How the visit works
We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. It normally takes a day or two, depending on how many items.
- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- The surface is prepared and primed.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- We leave everything to cure, normally until the day after.
Before we arrive
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Let the surface dry out before the visit

Are you a vetted contractor?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
How quickly can you book me in?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
Do you come to Harleston?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Harleston for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Will the price change on the day?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Can you turn my avocado bath white?
Yes. We resurface it in white with it left in place.

What we are called out for in Harleston
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.
The most common problems we are called about are:
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- Faded or patchy colour
- A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
Before booking anyone
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
- What protection goes down before work starts
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- What prep work is covered
When a repair is not the answer
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not 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)
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.
What we work on
- Whole bathroom suites
- Coloured basins
- Coloured shower trays
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
What affects the price in Harleston
Prices start from £350. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- How hard the colour is to match
- The material and finish
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How many items we do on one visit
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
How to get a fixed price
When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- The material, if you know it
- One picture of the whole suite
- Details of any past repairs
Email us a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, with your IP20 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

What else we do in Harleston
Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
