Common problems we fix in Risby
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. It’s typically the colour that dates them, not the condition.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Faded or patchy colour
- A suite that does not match a new bathroom
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
Questions to ask before booking
- When it can be used again
- How changes to the job are handled
- Who turns up on the day
- What preparation is included
Coloured bath resurfacing in Risby without replacing anything
Most suites take one or two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. We work on coloured basins, avocado, pampas and pink baths and whole bathroom suites, and people most frequently call us about faded or patchy colour and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom.
Every job is backed for twelve months in Risby and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Risby
Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.
How the visit works
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we are there. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes one to two days for a full suite. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- The surface is prepared and primed.
- We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
- Once cured, normally by the following day, the suite is ready.
Getting ready for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Let us know about parking or access
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Advice
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.
When we’d advise against a repair
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- 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)
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

How we price coloured bath resurfacing
Prices start from £350. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. This is what makes a difference:
- How many items we do on one visit
- What the surface is made of
- The colour and finish to match
- How easy the damage is to reach
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Risby. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Send pictures for a quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Any details about the material
Send us a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you are in Risby, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
Your questions about coloured bath resurfacing in Risby
What do you need from me?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Do you come to Risby?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Risby. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Can you quote from pictures?
Usually, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Suffolk.
Can you do the toilet too?
Ask us. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we’ll advise honestly before quoting.
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.

Should you replace it?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white changes the colour with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.
