How we price coloured bath resurfacing

Prices start from £350. We price every job individually, from your pictures. What matters most is:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The type of damage

We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Getting a price from photos

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:

  • Any details about the material
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Something in shot to show the size

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Norwell

We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. We regularly repair coloured basins, whole bathroom suites and avocado, pampas and pink baths, and the jobs we see most are a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and selling or letting a home with an old suite.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

What happens on the day

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you’re not left guessing. On site, it takes a day or two, depending on how many items. We leave the room clean.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
  5. Each item is left to cure, generally ready the next day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Getting a price

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Common questions in Norwell

Do you come to Norwell?

We do. Technicians travel to Norwell from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

What does coloured bath resurfacing cost?

Resurfacing from £350. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Can pets and children be at home?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.

Will there be a smell?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

What about the toilet?

Ask us. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we will tell you what will last.

Do you need coloured bath resurfacing in Norwell?

Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and many are still sound. The problem is normally the colour, not the bath.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
  • A suite that does not match a new bathroom
  • Selling or letting a home with an old suite
  • Faded or patchy colour

Before you book anyone

Our hiring checklist

Landlord and trade work in Norwell

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

What a repair can’t fix

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • 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)

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Materials we work on in Norwell

  • Coloured shower trays
  • Coloured basins
  • Avocado, pampas and pink baths
  • Whole bathroom suites

Why repair rather than replace?

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. Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Why choose Surface Doctor in Norwell

  • One visit for most repairs
  • A fixed quote before booking
  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
