Coloured Bath Resurfacing in Ringsfield Common
Our technicians come to Ringsfield Common for resurfacing coloured baths, basins and trays in white. Nothing is taken out, with a one-year guarantee.
- Resurfacing from £350
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
Can I fix it myself?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
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, a professional repair is worth it.
Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Ringsfield Common
Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there is no plumbing or tiling. A full suite is generally done in one to two days. If you are dealing with a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and selling or letting a home with an old suite, we can help, on whole bathroom suites, avocado, pampas and pink baths and coloured shower trays alike.
Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Repairing versus replacing in Ringsfield Common
Replacing a coloured suite means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white changes the colour without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

What we are called out for in Ringsfield Common
Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. It’s typically the colour that dates them, not the condition.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- A suite that doesn’t 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

When a repair isn’t the answer
We will not take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- 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 photos and we will say what we think before you book.

Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- The type of damage
- How many areas need work
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The colour and finish to match
We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Send pictures for a quote
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Where you are, by postcode
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A wider photo showing the whole suite
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire suite, we can price the job the same day in most cases.
What we do, step by step
There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to a day or two, depending on how many items, tidy-up included.
- 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 the new white (or other colour) finish.
- We leave everything to cure, generally until the day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Let the surface dry out before the visit

Ringsfield Common: your questions answered
Do you work in Ringsfield Common?
We do. Technicians travel to Ringsfield Common from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. If pictures don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Talk to us first. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we will advise honestly before quoting.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We come back with a fixed quote. There’s no obligation to book.
Can pets and children be at home?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
