Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Ingestre
We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. A full suite is generally done in one to two days. We work on avocado, pampas and pink baths, whole bathroom suites and coloured basins, and people most often call us about selling or letting a home with an old suite and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

How we price coloured bath resurfacing
Resurfacing from £350. We give every job a fixed price from photos. This is what makes a difference:
- The colour and finish to match
- What the surface is made of
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Access to the area
A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Quotes from your pictures
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Any details about the material
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A photo taken from further back
To get a price, send a couple of photos using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
What a repair can’t fix
We won’t take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot 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)
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

When to call us in Ingestre
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and many are still sound. The problem is generally the colour, not the bath.

- 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
- Faded or patchy colour
What to look for in a quote
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- What aftercare is recommended
- How your room will be protected
Your questions about coloured bath resurfacing in Ingestre
Do you charge for travel?
There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Do you work in Ingestre?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Ingestre and the rest of Staffordshire. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can you do the toilet too?
Talk to us first. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we’ll tell you what will last.
Can you quote from pictures?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Which areas do you work in?
Everywhere in the UK, Ingestre included. There is no extra charge for travel.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
Repairing versus replacing in Ingestre
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white changes the colour without taking anything out. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Landlord and trade work in Ingestre
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.
What we do, step by step
Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take one to two days for a full suite, and we leave the room as we found it.
- The room is protected and ventilated.
- We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
- We leave everything to cure, generally until the next day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
Ask for a price
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.
