Portslade: your questions answered
How much does coloured bath resurfacing cost in Portslade?
Resurfacing from £350. Every job gets a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your BN41 postcode.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Do you cover Portslade?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Portslade from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Do the materials smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It fades as everything cures.

How it works
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we are doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. Allow a day or two, depending on how many items, and we will keep you posted as we go.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
- Once cured, normally by the day after, the suite is ready.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Ensure the area is dry

Landlords, agents and businesses in Portslade
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
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.
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 the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
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.
How we price coloured bath resurfacing
Prices start from £350. We do not charge extra for travel to Portslade. The price depends on:
- Access to the area
- What kind of damage it is
- How hard the colour is to match
- What the surface is made of
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Send pictures for a quote
Phone photos are fine. Just make sure we can see:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- One picture of the entire suite
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
What we are called out for in Portslade
Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. It’s usually the colour that dates them, not the condition.
You may need us if you’ve spotted:
- 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
Before booking anyone
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- How changes to the job are handled
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- If travel is included in the price
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a coloured suite involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing changes the colour without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
