Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a coloured suite means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white turns it white with everything left in place. Prices start from £350. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Marston Trussell
We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. A full suite is normally done in one to two days. Whether it’s selling or letting a home with an old suite and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s 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 I try a DIY kit first?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- The material and finish
- How many items we do on one visit
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The colour and finish to match
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.
Send pictures for a quote
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- The material, if you know it
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Something in shot to show the size
- A photo taken from further back
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Work for landlords and builders
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
When a repair isn’t the answer
We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t 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)
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
What we work on
- Coloured basins
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Whole bathroom suites
- Coloured shower trays
Common questions in Marston Trussell
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
How do I book?
Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.
Can you do the toilet too?
Ask us. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we’ll tell you what will last.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Are there extra charges for Marston Trussell?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
How do I get a price for coloured bath resurfacing in Marston Trussell?
Resurfacing from £350. Every job gets a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your LE16 postcode.
Will there be a smell?
Expect a mild smell while we are working that clears as it cures.
What we do, step by step
Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Allow one to two days for a full suite from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and how to care for it.
- The room is protected and ventilated.
- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
- We leave everything to cure, generally until the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Clear the area around the damage
Getting a price
To get a price, send two or three photos through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
