What we’re called out for in Sherbourne Street
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. It’s generally the colour that dates them, not the condition.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Faded or patchy colour
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- A suite that does not match a new bathroom
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
What to look for in a quote
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- When it can be used again
- Aftercare advice
Coloured bath resurfacing in Sherbourne Street without replacing anything
Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. A full suite is normally done in one to two days. Typical jobs include a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, across avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured shower trays and coloured basins.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

What we can’t put right
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)
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

How it works
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the work takes one to two days for a full suite. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- The surface is prepared and primed.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- Each item is left to cure, normally ready the next day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Make sure the area is dry

Work for landlords and builders
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Can I fix it myself?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
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 without taking anything out. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Sherbourne Street. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

- The colour and finish to match
- Where the damage is and how we get to it

- Something in shot to show the size
- The material, if you know it
- A wider photo showing the whole suite
- Details of any past repairs
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We will say straight away if a repair is the right fix.

What does coloured bath resurfacing cost?
Resurfacing from £350. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Is a repair better than a new one?

Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
