Do you need coloured bath resurfacing in Newhaven?
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and many are still sound. The problem is generally the colour, not the bath.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- Faded or patchy colour
- A suite that does not match a new bathroom
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
Questions to ask before booking
- Who will actually do the work
- If travel is included in the price
- How soon you can use it again
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
Coloured bath resurfacing in Newhaven without replacing anything
We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. A full suite is usually done in one to two days. If you’re dealing with faded or patchy colour and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, we can help, whatever the material.
You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Landlord and trade work in Newhaven
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll arrange it.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Newhaven use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
When a repair is not the answer
To be straight with you, 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.
Surfaces we repair
- Coloured basins
- Whole bathroom suites
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Coloured shower trays
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
The process
Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take one to two days for a full suite, and we leave the room as we found it.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
- Once cured, normally by the day after, the suite is ready.
Before we arrive
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- Doing more than one item at once
- The material and finish
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How easy the damage is to reach
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
How to get a fixed price
You can take the photos on your phone. Just make sure we can see:
- Something in shot to show the size
- One picture of the whole suite
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
To get a price, send a couple of photos using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
Should you replace it?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white turns it white with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. 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. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Why us?
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- Fixed prices from your pictures
- Work done at your home or business
