Repairing versus replacing in Hendra
Replacing a coloured suite involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white turns it white without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Hendra
Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. Whether it’s selling or letting a home with an old suite and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, we can usually put it right, on coloured basins, whole bathroom suites and coloured shower trays alike.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after the visit. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

How we price coloured bath resurfacing
Resurfacing from £350. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:
- How hard the colour is to match
- The material
- Access to the area
- The type of damage
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book.
Send pictures for a quote
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:
- Details of any past repairs
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A picture taken from further back
- One sharp close-up of the damage
To get a price, send a couple of photos using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
Surfaces we repair
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths

Signs you need coloured bath resurfacing in Hendra
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.
Send us a picture if you notice any of these:
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- Faded or patchy colour
Questions to ask before booking

- Who will actually do the work
DIY repairs versus a professional job
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
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.
What happens on the day
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we’re there. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a day or two, depending on how many items. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
- We leave everything to cure, normally until the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Make sure the area is dry
- Point us to the nearest place to park

We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
