About our coloured bath resurfacing in Mellis
We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. A full suite is typically done in one to two days. Whether it’s a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.
You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Your questions about coloured bath resurfacing in Mellis
Which areas do you work in?
We work UK-wide, and that includes Mellis. Prices do not change with location.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Is there any odour?
There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.
What about the toilet?
Ask us. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we will tell you what will last.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
Can you turn my avocado bath white?
Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a coloured suite means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white changes the colour with everything left in place. Prices start from £350. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Why book with us
- One-year guarantee on every repair
- One price list for the entire UK

- Honest advice, even when it means no job

What we cannot put right
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- 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)

What affects the price in Mellis
Prices start from £350. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- How much damage there is
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The material
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Quotes from your photos
Two or three clear photos are usually enough. Try to include:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Where you are, by postcode
- A wider photo showing the whole suite
- Details of any past repairs
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the suite, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
Signs you need coloured bath resurfacing in Mellis
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. It’s typically the colour that dates them, not the condition.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- A suite that does not match a new bathroom
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- Faded or patchy colour
Comparing quotes
- Aftercare advice
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- How soon you can use it again
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
Landlords, agents and businesses in Mellis
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Suffolk and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
What we do, step by step
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a day or two, depending on how many items, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- The surface is prepared and primed.
- We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
- Once cured, normally by the next day, the suite is ready.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
Getting a price
To get a price, send a couple of pictures using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
Related advice
Should I try a DIY kit first?
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.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
