How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Primrose
We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. Whether it’s a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and selling or letting a home with an old suite, we can help.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing turns it white without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. There’s no area surcharge for Primrose. The price reflects:
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- What the surface is made of
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Getting a price from pictures
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- One picture of the whole suite
- Something in shot to show the size
- Details of any past repairs
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
If you’re in Primrose and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
How the visit works
Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Allow one to two days for a full suite from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- The room is protected and ventilated.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
- We leave everything to cure, typically until the next day.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Ensure the area is dry
Getting a price
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Common problems we fix in Primrose
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. It’s usually the colour that dates them, not the condition.
Contact us if you’ve noticed any of these:
- A suite that does not match a new bathroom
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- Faded or patchy colour
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
Questions to ask before you book
- Who turns up on the day
- How changes to the job are handled
- What aftercare is recommended
- How your room will be protected
DIY repairs versus a professional job
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, a professional repair is worth it.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Primrose
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we will arrange it.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.
