About our coloured bath resurfacing in Ipswich
Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. A full suite is usually done in one to two days. Whether it’s a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and faded or patchy colour, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.
Every job is backed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a coloured suite involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing changes the colour without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
Why us?
- Straight answers about what a repair can do
- A fixed quote before you book
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- One visit for most repairs

Work for landlords and builders
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
Common problems we fix in Ipswich
Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. The problem is generally the colour, not the bath.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- Faded or patchy colour
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether they match the colour on site
- What prep work is covered
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- How to look after the finish
What happens on the day
Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes one to two days for a full suite, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- The room is protected and ventilated.
- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- The surface is prepared and primed.
- We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
- Each item is left to cure, usually ready the day after.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Keep a parking space free if you can
How to get a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole suite, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Common questions in Ipswich
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Can you quote from pictures?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.
How much does coloured bath resurfacing cost in Ipswich?
Prices start from £350. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Can a coloured bath be made white?
Yes. We resurface it in white with it left in place.
Will there be a smell?
There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
What information do you need?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
What we cannot put right
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’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.

What affects the price in Ipswich
Prices start from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:
- Access to the area
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- What the surface is made of
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
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. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Getting a price from pictures
You can generally get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A wider photo showing the whole suite
- Details of any past repairs
- The material, if you know it
Upload a photo of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Ipswich, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
DIY kit or professional repair?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
