Coloured bath resurfacing in Ipswich Garden Suburb without replacing anything
Most suites take one or two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. Whether it’s selling or letting a home with an old suite and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, we can help.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Questions from Ipswich Garden Suburb
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it normally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Are there extra charges for Ipswich Garden Suburb?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
What areas do you cover?
We work UK-wide. Our prices are the same everywhere.
What information do you need?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- The material and finish
- How hard the colour is to match
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The type of damage
We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
How to get a fixed quote
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- A wider photo showing the entire suite
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
Repairing versus replacing in Ipswich Garden Suburb
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing turns it white with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

Do you need coloured bath resurfacing in Ipswich Garden Suburb?
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.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- Faded or patchy colour
- A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
Questions to ask before booking
- What happens if they find more damage
- How long it needs to cure
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- What prep work is covered
Can I fix it myself?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
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.
