About our coloured bath resurfacing in Neville's Cross
Most suites take one or two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. Our repair technicians work on coloured shower trays, whole bathroom suites and coloured basins, and the jobs we see most are a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and faded or patchy colour.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Neville's Cross as everywhere else we work. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Common problems we fix in Neville's Cross
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and many are still sound. It’s usually the colour that dates them, not the condition.
Look out for these signs:
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- Faded or patchy colour
- A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:
- What kind of damage it is
- What the surface is made of
- Access to the area
- How many items we do on one visit
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking.
Getting a price from photos
When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Any details about the material
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Natural light rather than flash
- A picture taken from further back
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
Repairing versus replacing in Neville's Cross
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing changes the colour with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. We do not add 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.
Why book with us
- Most jobs done in one visit
- One price list for the whole UK
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide

Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Neville's Cross questions
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
How quickly can you book me in?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.

Advice
What a repair cannot fix
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- 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.
