Coloured bath resurfacing in Little Almshoe without replacing anything
Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. We are frequently asked to fix faded or patchy colour and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, on avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured basins and whole bathroom suites.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once we’ve gone. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

- 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 photos and we will say what we think before you book.

Questions from Little Almshoe
Do the materials smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.
Can you quote from photos?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Do you cover the entire of Hertfordshire?
Across the UK. Prices do not change with location.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
What happens if you find more damage?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

Advice
What we are called out for in Little Almshoe
Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and many are still sound. The problem is normally the colour, not the bath.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- A suite that does not match a new bathroom
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- Faded or patchy colour
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
What your quote should include
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves 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. We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Why us?
- Colour-matched on site
- No need to remove anything
- Same prices wherever you are
- Fixed prices from your pictures

Can I fix it myself?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. 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.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
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 liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
What affects the price in Little Almshoe
Prices start from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Little Almshoe. What changes the price is:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How many items we do on one visit
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Getting a price from photos
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Any details about the material
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.
