Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Quarrington Hill
Most suites take one or two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there is no plumbing or tiling. We work on avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured shower trays and whole bathroom suites, and common reasons people contact us are selling or letting a home with an old suite and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we will come back. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

When we would advise against a repair
Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:
- 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)
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.

DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
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.
FAQs for Quarrington Hill
Do you charge for travel?
There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
You’ll get a fixed quote back, plus dates. There’s no obligation to book.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

How the visit works
We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. Allow a day or two, depending on how many items, and we’ll 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 prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
- Each item is left to cure, normally ready the next day.
Preparing for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

What affects the price in Quarrington Hill
Prices start from £350. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The material and finish
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Send pictures for a quote
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- A picture taken from further back
- Details of any past repairs
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and no obligation.
Common problems we fix in Quarrington Hill
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and many are still sound. It’s generally the colour that dates them, not the condition.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
- Faded or patchy colour
Questions to ask before you book
- What protection goes down before work starts
- How soon you can use it again
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- Aftercare advice
Landlord and trade work in Quarrington Hill
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
Repairing versus replacing in Quarrington Hill
Replacing a coloured suite involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing changes the colour without taking anything out. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Quarrington Hill. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
