Coloured suite to white in Plaistow, Derbyshire
Our technicians come to Plaistow for resurfacing coloured baths, basins and trays in white. Nothing is taken out, with a one-year guarantee.
- Resurfacing from £350
- A suite that does not match a new bathroom

How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Plaistow
We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there is no plumbing or tiling. A full suite is generally done in one to two days. Typical jobs include a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and selling or letting a home with an old suite, across coloured basins, avocado, pampas and pink baths and coloured shower trays.
Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Derbyshire. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Landlord and trade work in Plaistow
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.
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.
What happens on the day
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job normally takes one to two days for a full suite. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.
- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
- Each item is left to cure, generally ready the next day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
Getting a price
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or call us. We will say immediately if a repair is the right fix.
Advice
Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
Do you need coloured bath resurfacing in Plaistow?
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.
Look out for any of the following:
- A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
- Faded or patchy colour
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
What to look for in a quote
- What protection goes down before work starts
- How long it needs to cure
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- What aftercare is recommended
FAQs for Plaistow
Is there any odour?
There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
What does coloured bath resurfacing cost?
Resurfacing from £350. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Do you come to Plaistow?
We do. Technicians travel to Plaistow from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:
- The colour and finish to match
- What kind of damage it is
- What the surface is made of
- Whether we combine several jobs
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Send pictures for a quote
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- A wider photo showing the entire suite
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

Repairing versus replacing in Plaistow
Replacing a coloured suite means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing turns it white without taking anything out. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350.
