What else we do in Old Buckenham
Signs you need coloured bath resurfacing in Old Buckenham
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. The problem is usually the colour, not the bath.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Faded or patchy colour
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- A suite that does not match a new bathroom
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
Questions to ask before you book
- How long it needs to cure
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- What prep work is covered
- Whether the price covers travel
How we price coloured bath resurfacing
Resurfacing from £350. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:
- Access to the area
- How hard the colour is to match
- How many areas need work
- What kind of damage it is
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Send pictures for a quote
You can usually get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A wider photo showing the whole suite
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the suite, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
The process
Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a day or two, depending on how many items, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
- We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- Each item is left to cure, generally ready the day after.
Before we arrive
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
Ask for a price
To get a price, send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We will say straight away whether it can be repaired.
Advice
Your questions about coloured bath resurfacing in Old Buckenham
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We come back with a fixed price, plus dates. There is no obligation to book.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Can pets and children be at home?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across Norfolk.
Do you cover Old Buckenham?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Old Buckenham and the rest of Norfolk. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a coloured suite involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white changes the colour without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Why book with us
- We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
- Same prices wherever you are
- Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide

Can I fix it myself?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
Honest limits
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. We can’t 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)
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.
What we work on
- Whole bathroom suites
- Coloured shower trays
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Coloured basins
Work for landlords and builders
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Old Buckenham use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
