About our coloured bath resurfacing in Smallford
We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. A full suite is normally done in one to two days. Whether it’s faded or patchy colour and selling or letting a home with an old suite, we can help.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll sort it. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Landlord and trade work in Smallford
For anyone letting property in or around Smallford, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we will price them together.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.
How the visit works
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes one to two days for a full suite. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
- We leave everything to cure, generally until the following day.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Let us know which floor the room is on
Getting a price
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

Signs you need coloured bath resurfacing in Smallford
Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. It’s normally the colour that dates them, not the condition.
The things clients usually mention when they call are:
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
- Faded or patchy colour
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
What to look for in a quote

- Who turns up on the day
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
- How changes to the job are handled
Can I fix it myself?
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 normally the cheaper route.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Smallford: your questions answered
Are there extra charges for Smallford?
There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
Can a coloured bath be made white?
Yes. We resurface it in white with it left in place.
What happens next?
You will get a fixed quote back, plus dates. There’s no obligation to book.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
Is there any odour?
There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.
What about the toilet?
Ask us. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we’ll tell you what will last.
How we price coloured bath resurfacing
Resurfacing from £350. There’s no area surcharge for Smallford. The price reflects:
- The colour and finish to match
- What kind of damage it is
- Access to the area
- The material
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Quotes from your pictures
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Details of any past repairs
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A wider photo showing the whole suite
You do not need a survey visit. 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.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a coloured suite means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white turns it white without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
