Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
Repairing versus replacing in Long Melford
Replacing a coloured suite means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing turns it white without taking anything out. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.
Why book with us
- Work done at your home or business
- We leave the room as we found it
- Everything repaired in place
- No extra charge for your area

Signs you need coloured bath resurfacing in Long Melford
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.

- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- Faded or patchy colour
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- A suite that does not match a new bathroom
Questions to ask before booking
- How long it needs to cure
- What preparation is included
- How the room is protected while they work
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
Work for landlords and builders
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
Long Melford: your questions answered
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.
How do I get a price for coloured bath resurfacing in Long Melford?
Resurfacing from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
What happens next?
You will get a fixed quote back, generally with dates to choose from. You are under no obligation.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Do you work in Long Melford?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Long Melford and the rest of Suffolk. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
What coloured bath resurfacing costs
Resurfacing from £350. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- What the surface is made of
- Doing more than one item at once
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.
Getting a price from pictures
You can typically get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:
- A photo taken from further back
- Details of any past repairs
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.
