Coloured suite to white in Horton, South Gloucestershire
Our repair technicians come to Horton for resurfacing coloured baths, basins and trays in white. Everything is done in place, with a one-year guarantee.
- Resurfacing from £350
- Faded or patchy colour
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
Work for landlords and builders
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.
Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Horton
Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. A full suite is normally done in one to two days. We work on coloured shower trays, avocado, pampas and pink baths and whole bathroom suites, and people most frequently call us about a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and selling or letting a home with an old suite.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

How it works
Once we’re 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 one to two days for a full suite, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- 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 the new white (or other colour) finish.
- Once cured, normally by the following day, the suite is ready.
Before we arrive
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
Do you hold any accreditations?

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.

Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Signs you need coloured bath resurfacing in Horton
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. It’s normally the colour that dates them, not the condition.
The things clients usually mention when they call are:
- Faded or patchy colour
- A suite that does not match a new bathroom
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
Questions to ask before booking
- What aftercare is recommended
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- What preparation is included
- Whether the price covers travel
Should I try a DIY kit first?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The material and finish
- Unusual colours or finishes
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Quotes from your pictures
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- One picture of the whole suite
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
If you are in Horton and want a price, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
When we’d advise against a repair
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. We cannot 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 will say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Coloured basins
- Coloured shower trays
- Whole bathroom suites
