Coloured bath resurfacing in Higher Gamesley, done in place
Most suites take one or two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. We regularly repair coloured basins, avocado, pampas and pink baths and whole bathroom suites, and common reasons people contact us are a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and faded or patchy colour.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

When to call us in Higher Gamesley
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. It’s typically the colour that dates them, not the condition.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Faded or patchy colour
- A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
Questions to ask before you book
- Who turns up on the day
- How changes to the job are handled
- If travel is included in the price
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
When we’d advise against a repair
In fairness, some problems need a different 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)
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.
What we work on
- Whole bathroom suites
- Coloured basins
- Coloured shower trays
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
The process
Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow a day or two, depending on how many items from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
- Once cured, normally by the following day, the suite is ready.
Getting ready for the visit
- Make sure the area is dry
- Open a window if you can
- Point us to the nearest place to park

DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Higher Gamesley

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white changes the colour without taking anything out. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
What you get with us
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- Colour-matched on site
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- We leave the room as we found it

Questions from Higher Gamesley
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
Can you quote from photos?
Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire suite and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
How much does coloured bath resurfacing cost in Higher Gamesley?
Resurfacing from £350. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Can you turn my avocado bath white?
Yes. We resurface it in white with it left in place.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. We price every job individually, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How many items we do on one visit
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Getting a price from pictures
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- Details of any past repairs
- Natural light rather than flash
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire suite, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
