How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Highfield
We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. We work on avocado, pampas and pink baths, whole bathroom suites and coloured shower trays, and people most often call us about selling or letting a home with an old suite and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

What a repair cannot fix
A repair is not always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:
- 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’ll tell you honestly.

Highfield questions
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Do you cover Highfield?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Highfield for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Can a coloured bath be made white?
Yes. We resurface it in white with it left in place.
What information do you need?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Normally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Repairing versus replacing in Highfield
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. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Highfield. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

What we’re called out for in Highfield
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and many are still sound. It’s normally the colour that dates them, not the condition.
The things clients typically mention when they call are:
- A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- Faded or patchy colour
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
What to look for in a quote
- How the colour is matched
- Who will actually do the work
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
- What preparation is included
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. There is no area surcharge for Highfield. The price reflects:
- Doing more than one item at once
- What kind of damage it is
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How easy the damage is to reach
We don’t add 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
Phone pictures are fine. Ensure they show:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A picture taken from further back
- Where you are, by postcode
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire suite, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Related advice
For landlords and businesses
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.
Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
