Coloured bath resurfacing in Newmillerdam without replacing anything
A full suite is generally done in one to two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Our technicians work on whole bathroom suites, coloured basins and avocado, pampas and pink baths, and common reasons people get in touch are selling or letting a home with an old suite and faded or patchy colour.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How hard the colour is to match
- How many items we do on one visit
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking.
Quotes from your photos
You can usually get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- One picture of the entire suite
- Any details about the material
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
To get a price, send two or three photos using our quote form or call us. We’ll say right away if a repair is the right fix.
When to call us in Newmillerdam
Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and many are still sound. The problem is generally the colour, not the bath.
Look out for any of the following:
- 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
- Faded or patchy colour
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- How to care for the finish
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
Landlords, agents and businesses in Newmillerdam
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Newmillerdam as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
Repairing versus replacing in Newmillerdam
Replacing a coloured suite involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing turns it white with everything left in place. Prices start from £350. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

How it works
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take a day or two, depending on how many items, including clearing up.
- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
- The surface is prepared and primed.
- We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
- We leave everything to cure, usually until the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

When we would advise against a repair
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:
- 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)
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

DIY kit or professional repair?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
Questions from Newmillerdam
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole suite and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
What about the toilet?
Talk to us first. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we will tell you what will last.
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send pictures.
Can tenants book a repair?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Is there any odour?
There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.
