What we are called out for in Prittlewell
Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. The problem is generally the colour, not the bath.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- Faded or patchy colour
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
What your quote should include
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- Whether they match the colour on site
Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Prittlewell
Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. Common call-outs are for a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and selling or letting a home with an old suite, in coloured shower trays, whole bathroom suites and avocado, pampas and pink baths.
You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

What else we do in Prittlewell
Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How much damage there is
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Prittlewell. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Quotes from your pictures
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A photo taken from further back
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
If you’re in Prittlewell 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.
Landlord and trade work in Prittlewell
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.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
What we do, step by step
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Plan for one to two days for a full suite. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- 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 next day, the suite is ready.
Before we arrive
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
Getting a price
To get a price, send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say immediately whether it can be repaired.

Your questions about coloured bath resurfacing in Prittlewell
Will there be a smell?
Expect a mild smell while we are working.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Which areas do you work in?
Across the UK, and that includes Prittlewell. Our prices are the same everywhere.
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire suite and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
What happens if you find more damage?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing changes the colour with everything left in place. Prices start from £350. 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.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will 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, it’s worth having it done properly.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
