Coloured Bath Resurfacing for Longfleet homes
We travel to Longfleet for resurfacing coloured baths, basins and trays in white. Everything is done in place, and the work is guaranteed.
- Resurfacing from £350
- A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
- Faded or patchy colour
How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Longfleet
Most suites take one or two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. We work on coloured basins, whole bathroom suites and avocado, pampas and pink baths, and people most often call us about a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white.
All our work comes with our one-year guarantee. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

What we’re called out for in Longfleet
Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. The problem is generally the colour, not the bath.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- Faded or patchy colour
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite

- Whether the price covers travel
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
When a repair is not the answer
A repair is not always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. 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)
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths

Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. What matters most is:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Unusual colours or finishes
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Getting a price from photos
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say straight away whether it can be repaired.
For landlords and businesses
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a coloured suite means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing turns it white with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Can I fix it myself?
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 does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
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.
