Trusted coloured bath resurfacing in Little Thurlow Green

For landlords and businesses

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Little Thurlow Green

Most suites take one or two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. Our technicians work on coloured basins, whole bathroom suites and avocado, pampas and pink baths, and the jobs we see most are a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Little Thurlow Green as everywhere else we work. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

When we would advise against a repair

We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • 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)

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

What we work on

  • Coloured basins
  • Coloured shower trays
  • Whole bathroom suites
  • Avocado, pampas and pink baths

What coloured bath resurfacing costs

Resurfacing from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How much damage there is

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Send pictures for a quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

Send us a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, with your CB9 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

When to call us in Little Thurlow Green

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.

  • A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
  • Faded or patchy colour
  • Selling or letting a home with an old suite
  • A suite that does not match a new bathroom

What your quote should include

  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • Who turns up on the day

10 questions to ask before booking

Your questions about coloured bath resurfacing in Little Thurlow Green

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Can you price it without visiting?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

What about the toilet?

Ask us. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we’ll tell you what will last.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

Do you cover the entire of Suffolk?

We cover the entire UK, including Little Thurlow Green and the rest of Suffolk. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.

What information do you need?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.

What happens if you find more damage?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.

Do you come to Little Thurlow Green?

Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Little Thurlow Green from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

The process

The work is clean and fairly quiet. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a day or two, depending on how many items. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
  3. We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
  5. Once cured, normally by the following day, the suite is ready.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Make sure the area is dry

Ask for a price

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a coloured suite means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing changes the colour without taking anything out. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Why us?

  • Work done at your home or business
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
