DIY kit or professional repair?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Sprat's Down
We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. A full suite is generally done in one to two days. Common call-outs are for a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and selling or letting a home with an old suite, in coloured shower trays, coloured basins and whole bathroom suites.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Common questions in Sprat's Down
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
Can pets and children be at home?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
What do you need from me?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
What happens next?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote.
When a repair is not the answer
Before booking, it’s worth knowing 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 will tell you honestly before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Whole bathroom suites
- Coloured shower trays
- Coloured basins
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
What coloured bath resurfacing costs
Resurfacing from £350. We give every job a fixed price from photos. This is what makes a difference:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Doing more than one item at once
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- What the surface is made of
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
How to get a fixed price
Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- The material, if you know it
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Where you are, by postcode
- One picture of the entire suite
If you are in Sprat's Down and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
When to call us in Sprat's Down
Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and many are still sound. It’s usually the colour that dates them, not the condition.
Get in touch if you’ve noticed:
- Faded or patchy colour
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
What to look for in a quote
- How the room is protected while they work
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- If travel is included in the price
- Who will actually do the work
What happens on the day
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Allow one to two days for a full suite. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to look after it.
- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
- Each item is left to cure, normally ready the next day.
Before we arrive
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Open a window if you can
- Keep a parking space free if you can
How to get a price
Most customers in Sprat's Down get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Advice
Should you replace it?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white turns it white without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
