Coloured bath resurfacing in Ousby without replacing anything
We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there is no plumbing or tiling. A full suite is typically done in one to two days. We work on coloured shower trays, whole bathroom suites and coloured basins, and people most frequently call us about selling or letting a home with an old suite and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white.
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

What we cannot put right
We won’t take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- 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)

Do you need coloured bath resurfacing in Ousby?
Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. It’s generally the colour that dates them, not the condition.
You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- A suite that does not match a new bathroom
- Faded or patchy colour

Work for landlords and builders
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
If you manage property in Ousby, we will quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we will come back with a combined price.
Repairing versus replacing in Ousby
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing turns it white without taking anything out. Prices start 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.

- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- One price list for the entire UK

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.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Can you quote from photos?
Typically, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
How we price coloured bath resurfacing
Prices start from £350. We don’t charge extra for travel to Ousby. The price depends on:
- What the surface is made of
- How hard the colour is to match
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How many areas need work
We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
How to get a fixed quote
Phone pictures are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Ensure they show:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- The material, if you know it
- Natural light rather than flash
- A photo taken from further back
Most customers in Ousby get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
The process
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes one to two days for a full suite, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- 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.
- Once cured, normally by the next day, the suite is ready.
How to prepare
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
