About our coloured bath resurfacing in Stoke Ash

We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. A full suite is usually done in one to two days. Common call-outs are for selling or letting a home with an old suite and faded or patchy colour, across coloured shower trays, coloured basins and whole bathroom suites.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

For landlords and businesses

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Stoke Ash as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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 generally 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: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

Common problems we fix in Stoke Ash

Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. It’s usually the colour that dates them, not the condition.

Get in touch if you’ve noticed any of these:

  • A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
  • Faded or patchy colour
  • Selling or letting a home with an old suite
  • A dated coloured suite you’d like in white

  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges

10 questions to ask before booking

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white changes the colour with everything left in place. Prices start from £350. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Stoke Ash. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

See our prices page and guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.

What coloured bath resurfacing costs

Prices start from £350. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. What matters most is:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Access to the area
  • The colour and finish to match
  • The material and finish

Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

How to get a fixed price

Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. It helps if you send:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • A wider photo showing the whole suite
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Questions from Stoke Ash

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Can you turn my avocado bath white?

Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.

What areas do you cover?

The whole UK, including all of Suffolk. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll confirm dates.

Can you price it without visiting?

Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Will you leave a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Can tenants book a repair?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

How the visit works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a day or two, depending on how many items. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  1. We protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
  5. Each item is left to cure, usually ready the next day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
