About our coloured bath resurfacing in Mill Street
We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. We regularly repair whole bathroom suites, coloured basins and avocado, pampas and pink baths, and common reasons people contact us are a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
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.
What we are called out for in Mill Street
Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. It’s typically the colour that dates them, not the condition.
Look out for any of the following:
- 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 doesn’t match a new bathroom
Before you book anyone
- Aftercare advice
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- How the colour is matched
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
Should you replace it?
Replacing a coloured suite means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing changes the colour with everything left in place. 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. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.
Why us?
- Fixed prices from your photos
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- One visit for most repairs
- Colour mixed on the day to match

The process

- We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- We leave everything to cure, generally until the next day.
Before we arrive
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Clear the area around the damage
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Advice
How we price coloured bath resurfacing
Prices start from £350. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. This is what makes a difference:
- What the surface is made of
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How much damage there is
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Quotes from your photos
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- Something in shot to show the size
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A picture taken from further back
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.
