Coloured suite to white in Knapp, Hampshire
We travel to Knapp for resurfacing coloured baths, basins and trays in white. Nothing is taken out, and the work is guaranteed.
- Resurfacing from £350
- A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
- Faded or patchy colour
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:
- How many areas need work
- The material
- Access to the area
- What kind of damage it is
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
How to get a fixed price
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Something in shot to show the size
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Any details about the material
For a price in Knapp, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Knapp
We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. We are often asked to fix a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and selling or letting a home with an old suite, in avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured basins and coloured shower trays.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Knapp and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a day or two, depending on how many items, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
- We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- We leave everything to cure, normally until the next day.
How to prepare

Landlord and trade work in Knapp
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
For anyone letting property in or around Knapp, we will quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we will come back with a combined price.
DIY kit or professional repair?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
FAQs for Knapp
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
How do I book?
Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Can pets and children be at home?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
When a repair isn’t the answer
A repair is not always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:
- 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’ll say what we think before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Coloured shower trays
- Coloured basins
- Whole bathroom suites
