Coloured bath resurfacing in St Nicholas, done in place
We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. We regularly repair coloured shower trays, whole bathroom suites and avocado, pampas and pink baths, and people most frequently call us about faded or patchy colour and selling or letting a home with an old suite.
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

How it works
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a day or two, depending on how many items. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.
- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- The surface is prepared and primed.
- The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
- Once cured, normally by the following day, the suite is ready.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Make sure the area is dry
- Let us know if it has been repaired before

St Nicholas questions
Will there be a smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Can a coloured bath be made white?
Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners in St Nicholas.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
How much does coloured bath resurfacing cost in St Nicholas?
Prices start from £350. Every job gets a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item and your postcode.
Do you charge for travel?

How do I book?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
When a repair isn’t the answer
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- 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 will say what we think.
What we work on

Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a coloured suite 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. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Common problems we fix in St Nicholas
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.
Look out for these signs:
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- A suite that does not match a new bathroom
- Faded or patchy colour
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
What to look for in a quote

What coloured bath resurfacing costs
Prices start from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How many items we do on one visit
- The colour and finish to match
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Getting a price from photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- The material, if you know it
- One picture of the entire suite
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Natural light rather than flash
If you are in St Nicholas and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
DIY kit or professional repair?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Landlords, agents and businesses in St Nicholas
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.
