Coloured suite to white in Higham Ferrers, Northamptonshire
We travel to Higham Ferrers for resurfacing coloured baths, basins and trays in white. Nothing is taken out, and the work is guaranteed.
- Resurfacing from £350
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- Faded or patchy colour
How we price coloured bath resurfacing
Prices start from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- What kind of damage it is
- Access to the area
- The material and finish
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Higham Ferrers. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Quotes from your pictures
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- The material, if you know it
- Where you are, by postcode
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the suite, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a coloured suite means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white turns it white with everything left in place. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. 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.

DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. 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.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
The process
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take one to two days for a full suite.
- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- The surface is prepared and primed.
- We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
- We leave everything to cure, usually until the next day.
Before we arrive
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
How to get a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

FAQs for Higham Ferrers
How do I book?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it normally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Can you turn my avocado bath white?
Yes. We resurface it in white with it left in place.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
You’ll get a fixed quote back. You are under no obligation.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Do you cover Higham Ferrers?
We do. Repair technicians travel to Higham Ferrers from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Work for landlords and builders
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Higham Ferrers as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details.
When we’d advise against a repair
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- 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)
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.
What we work on
- Coloured shower trays
- Coloured basins
- Whole bathroom suites
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
