Coloured suite to white in Horns Mill, Hertfordshire
We travel to Horns Mill for resurfacing coloured baths, basins and trays in white. Nothing is taken out, and the work is guaranteed.
- Resurfacing from £350
- A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Horns Mill
Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. A full suite is normally done in one to two days. Typical jobs include a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and selling or letting a home with an old suite, on coloured basins, whole bathroom suites and coloured shower trays.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once we have gone. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Questions from Horns Mill
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.
Can tenants book a repair?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
How do I book?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
Can you do the toilet too?
Ask us. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we’ll advise honestly before quoting.
Our work in Horns Mill
Horns Mill is about 1 mile south of Hertford, in Hertfordshire. Jobs in Horns Mill are booked in like any other job: a fixed price from your photos, and a technician at your door on the day. Horns Mill is one of 381 towns and villages in Hertfordshire we cover. Our jobs stretch from Horns Mill to London (about 20 miles away).
Here we cover the SG13 and SG14 postcode area. We regularly work on streets such as Cecil Road, Peg's Lane and Purkiss Road and the roads around them. Close by, we cover Hertford (1 mile north), Foxholes (1 mile north-east), Hertford Heath (2 miles east), Rush Green (2 miles north-east) and Brickendon (2 miles south).

What’s near Horns Mill
We visit homes around Church of St Andrew, Richard Hale School and The Black Horse Public House and the streets around them. The nearest railway station is Hertford North station, about 0.9 miles north. Other landmarks nearby include Hertford County Hospital (0.7 miles north) and Mcmullen & Sons Brewery Museum (0.8 miles north). Not far away are Willowmead.
For landlords and businesses
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
Honest limits
We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- 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 will tell you honestly.
Materials we repair
- Coloured basins
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Whole bathroom suites
- Coloured shower trays
What we do, step by step
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Allow one to two days for a full suite. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- The room is protected and ventilated.
- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- Each item is left to cure, typically ready the following day.
Before we arrive
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Let us know about parking or access
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
Ask for a price
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.
Related advice
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How much damage there is
- How hard the colour is to match
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking.
Quotes from your photos
Two or three clear pictures are typically enough. Try to include:
- A wider photo showing the whole suite
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Details of any past repairs
- Something in shot to show the size
For a price in Horns Mill, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Do you need coloured bath resurfacing in Horns Mill?
Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and many are still sound. It’s usually the colour that dates them, not the condition.
Send us a photo if you notice any of these:
- 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
- Faded or patchy colour
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- When it can be used again
- How changes to the job are handled
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers

Repair or replace in Horns Mill?
Replacing a coloured suite means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white turns it white without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
