- The inside of a toilet bowl, unless we’ve agreed it will last
- Items cracked right through

How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Mount Pleasant
Most suites take one or two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. If you are dealing with a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, we can help, on avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured basins and coloured shower trays alike.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Repairing versus replacing in Mount Pleasant
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white changes the colour with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Questions from Mount Pleasant
What about the toilet?
Talk to us first. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we’ll advise honestly before quoting.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
What happens if you find more damage?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
What happens next?
We come back with a fixed price, plus dates. There’s no obligation to book.
Can a coloured bath be made white?
Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.
When to call us in Mount Pleasant
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and many are still sound. It’s typically the colour that dates them, not the condition.
The things clients usually mention when they call are:
- Faded or patchy colour
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
Comparing quotes
- What aftercare is recommended
- How the room is protected while they work
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- Whether they match the colour on site
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- How many areas need work
- The material
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- What kind of damage it is
We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Mount Pleasant. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Send photos for a quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Natural light rather than flash
- A photo taken from further back
- The material, if you know it
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Work for landlords and builders
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.
Letting agents frequently 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.
Can I fix it myself?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
