Coloured bath resurfacing in Southwick, done in place
Most suites take one or two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there is no plumbing or tiling. If you’re dealing with faded or patchy colour and selling or letting a home with an old suite, we can typically put it right.
Older homes around Southwick may have baths that have been in place for decades. If the bath is sound, coloured bath resurfacing gives it a new lease of life without disturbing the rest of the room.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Should you replace it?
Replacing a coloured suite means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing turns it white with everything left in place. For a rural home like those around Southwick, a replacement means trades travelling out and waste being taken away, while coloured bath resurfacing is one trip.
Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

What else we do in Southwick
What a repair can’t fix
We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- 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 before booking.
What we work on
- Coloured shower trays
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Whole bathroom suites
- Coloured basins
DIY repairs versus a professional job
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 frequently lifts.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
Landlord and trade work in Southwick
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
What we’re called out for in Southwick
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.
You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:
- 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
In the older streets of Southwick, around landmarks like Church of St Thomas, it may still have its original cast iron bath, which is well worth repairing or re-enamelling rather than replacing.
Questions to ask before booking
- How to look after the finish
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- How long it needs to cure
- What protection goes down before work starts
