Coloured bath resurfacing in Ifold without replacing anything
A full suite is generally done in one to two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. Typical jobs include faded or patchy colour and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, across avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured basins and coloured shower trays.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will come back. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

When we would advise against a repair
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t 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)
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.

What coloured bath resurfacing costs
Prices start from £350. There’s no area surcharge for Ifold. The price reflects:
- The material
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Unusual colours or finishes
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.
Send photos for a quote
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- Natural light rather than flash
- Where you are, by postcode
- Something in shot to show the size
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
Ifold questions
What about the toilet?
Talk to us first. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we will tell you what will last.
What areas do you cover?
We work UK-wide, and that includes Ifold. Prices don’t change with location.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Can pets and children be at home?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
What does coloured bath resurfacing cost?
Resurfacing from £350. Every job gets a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item with your RH14 postcode.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Typically, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
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.
When to call us in Ifold
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and many are still sound. It’s typically the colour that dates them, not the condition.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- Faded or patchy colour
- A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom

Landlords, agents and businesses in Ifold
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
For anyone letting property in or around Ifold, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.
Repair or replace in Ifold?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white turns it white with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- 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.
- Once cured, normally by the day after, the suite is ready.
Preparing for the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Ensure the area is dry
