About our coloured bath resurfacing in Hook-a-Gate
Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. A full suite is typically done in one to two days. Common call-outs are for selling or letting a home with an old suite and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, in avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured shower trays and whole bathroom suites.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Hook-a-Gate as everywhere else we work. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

What we’re called out for in Hook-a-Gate
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.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- Faded or patchy colour
- A suite that does not match a new bathroom
What to look for in a quote
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- How your room will be protected
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
- What aftercare is recommended
The process
Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a day or two, depending on how many items, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- The room is protected and ventilated.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
- Each item is left to cure, generally ready the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Have a window or extractor fan available
How to get a price

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Access to the area
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
How to get a fixed quote
Two or three clear photos are generally enough. It helps if you send:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A wider photo showing the whole suite
If you are in Hook-a-Gate and want a price, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
For landlords and businesses
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
Repairing versus replacing in Hook-a-Gate
Replacing a coloured suite means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing changes the colour with everything left in place. Prices start from £350. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking.

Can I fix it myself?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
