Coloured bath resurfacing in Scatsta without replacing anything
Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there is no plumbing or tiling. A full suite is generally done in one to two days. We’re frequently asked to fix a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and selling or letting a home with an old suite, across coloured shower trays, whole bathroom suites and avocado, pampas and pink baths.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

When to call us in Scatsta
Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and many are still sound. The problem is usually the colour, not the bath.
People typically call us when they notice something like this:
- A suite that does not 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 to look for in a quote

What affects the price in Scatsta
Resurfacing from £350. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- What kind of damage it is
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How much damage there is
A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed quote
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Where you are, by postcode
- Natural light rather than flash
- Details of any past repairs
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Questions from Scatsta
What happens after I send pictures?
You will get a fixed quote back. There is no obligation to book.
Is there a call-out fee?
There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Can a coloured bath be made white?
Yes. We resurface it in white with it left in place.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
What areas do you cover?
The entire UK, including all of the Shetland Islands. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.
What we do, step by step
We agree an arrival time beforehand. On site, it takes one to two days for a full suite in most cases. The room is left tidy.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- 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.
- We leave everything to cure, typically until the day after.
Before we arrive
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
Ask for a price
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

When a repair isn’t the answer
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- 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 before you book.
Materials we repair
- Whole bathroom suites
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths

Work for landlords and builders
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.
DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a coloured suite involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white turns it white without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Why us?
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- Most jobs done in one visit
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
