Coloured suite to white in Scouthead, Oldham
Coloured bath resurfacing across Scouthead and nearby, generally in one visit and guaranteed for a year.
- Resurfacing from £350
- Faded or patchy colour
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white turns it white with everything left in place. 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 quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Why us?
- One-year guarantee on every repair
- Fixed prices from your pictures
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited
- Honest advice, even when it means no job

Coloured bath resurfacing in Scouthead, done in place
A full suite is typically done in one to two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. We regularly repair avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured basins and whole bathroom suites, and the jobs we see most are faded or patchy colour and selling or letting a home with an old suite.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll come back. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Signs you need coloured bath resurfacing in Scouthead
Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and many are still sound. It’s normally the colour that dates them, not the condition.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- Faded or patchy colour
- A suite that does not match a new bathroom
Questions to ask before booking
- When it can be used again
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- How the room is protected while they work
- How to care for the finish
The process
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes one to two days for a full suite, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- 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.
- Each item is left to cure, typically ready the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Clear the area around the damage
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Scouthead questions
What information do you need?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
Can you turn my avocado bath white?
Yes. We resurface it in white with it left in place.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Scouthead for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Which areas do you work in?
We cover the whole UK, including Scouthead and the rest of Oldham. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.
Is there any odour?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
What happens next?
You’ll get a fixed quote back, plus dates. You are under no obligation.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. 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.
When a repair isn’t the answer
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not 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’ll tell you honestly.
Surfaces we repair
- Coloured basins
- Whole bathroom suites
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Coloured shower trays
