About our coloured bath resurfacing in Stanmer
We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. Common call-outs are for a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, in coloured shower trays, coloured basins and whole bathroom suites.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once we’ve gone. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

What affects the price in Stanmer
Resurfacing from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Doing more than one item at once
- How easy the damage is to reach
- What the surface is made of
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
How to get a fixed price
You can normally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:
- A photo taken from further back
- Details of any past repairs
- Something in shot to show the size
- What it’s made of, if you know
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the suite, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
How the visit works
On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job generally takes a day or two, depending on how many items. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.
- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
- Each item is left to cure, generally ready the following day.
Before we arrive
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
How to get a price
To get a price, send a couple of pictures using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
Advice
When to call us in Stanmer
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.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- A suite that does not match a new bathroom
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- Faded or patchy colour
Questions to ask before booking
- Aftercare advice
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- Who turns up on the day
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
Honest limits
It helps to know what we can’t do too:
- 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 booking.

Can I fix it myself?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Questions from Stanmer
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
How quickly can you book me in?
We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
Do you cover the entire of Brighton and Hove?
Across the UK, so Stanmer is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Do you charge for travel?
There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.
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.
Do the materials smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work.

What else we do in Stanmer
Should you replace it?
Replacing a coloured suite means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white turns it white with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
What you get with us
- One visit for most repairs
- Colour mixed on the day to match
