About our coloured bath resurfacing in Knole
We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. We regularly repair whole bathroom suites, avocado, pampas and pink baths and coloured shower trays, and people most often call us about a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and faded or patchy colour.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Should you replace it?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing turns it white without taking anything out. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Your questions about coloured bath resurfacing in Knole
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Do you come to Knole?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Knole and the rest of Somerset. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
How do I get a price for coloured bath resurfacing in Knole?
Prices start from £350. We give a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item with your TA10 postcode.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
What areas do you cover?
Everywhere in the UK, Knole included. Travel is included in the price.
What happens on the day
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job usually takes a day or two, depending on how many items. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- The room is protected and ventilated.
- We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
- We leave everything to cure, generally until the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Ensure the area is dry
- Have a window or extractor fan available
How to get a price
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Signs you need coloured bath resurfacing in Knole
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. It’s generally the colour that dates them, not the condition.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Faded or patchy colour
- A suite that does not match a new bathroom
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
Questions to ask before you book
- What happens if they find more damage
- Who turns up on the day
- What aftercare is recommended
- Whether the price covers travel
What affects the price in Knole
Prices start from £350. You will know the full cost before booking. We take into account:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How hard the colour is to match
- How many areas need work
- The material
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
How to get a fixed price
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- Any details about the material
- Something in shot to show the size
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Natural light rather than flash
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire suite, we can price the job.
What we can’t put right
In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not 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 we work on
- Whole bathroom suites
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Coloured shower trays
- Coloured basins

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
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, then guarantee it for a year.
Work for landlords and builders
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
For anyone letting property in or around Knole, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.
