About our coloured bath resurfacing in Sapperton
Most suites take one or two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. We work on whole bathroom suites, avocado, pampas and pink baths and coloured basins, and common reasons people contact us are faded or patchy colour and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white.
All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Honest limits
We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t 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)
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Sapperton questions
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.
How do I get a price for coloured bath resurfacing in Sapperton?
Prices start from £350. Every job gets a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your DE6 postcode.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
What happens if you find more damage?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
What happens next?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote with dates.
What about the toilet?
Ask us. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we will tell you what will last.
Can you turn my avocado bath white?
Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
What we’re called out for in Sapperton

- A suite that does not match a new bathroom
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- Faded or patchy colour

What affects the price in Sapperton
Prices start from £350. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The size and number of damaged areas
- What kind of damage it is
- Access to the area
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed price
Phone pictures are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:
- Any details about the material
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- One picture of the entire suite
To get a price, send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
How the visit works
There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to a day or two, depending on how many items, tidy-up included.
- The room is protected and ventilated.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
- Once cured, normally by the following day, the suite is ready.
Before we arrive
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Open a window if you can
- Let the surface dry out before the visit

There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
Advice
DIY kit or professional repair?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
