Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
If you manage property in Sunnybrow, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we’ll price them together.
About our coloured bath resurfacing in Sunnybrow
A full suite is typically done in one to two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. We regularly repair avocado, pampas and pink baths, whole bathroom suites and coloured basins, and common reasons people contact us are a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Of course, and it generally saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and you’ll get one combined price.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a coloured suite means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white turns it white without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Why us?
- Colour-matched on site
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
- One visit for most repairs

How we price coloured bath resurfacing
Resurfacing from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Sunnybrow. The price reflects:
- The type of damage
- How many items we do on one visit
- The colour and finish to match
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book.
Quotes from your photos
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- Natural light rather than flash
- Any details about the material
- A wider photo showing the whole suite
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
What a repair cannot fix
It helps to know what we cannot 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)
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

What we do, step by step

- The surface is prepared and primed.

- We leave everything to cure, generally until the next day.
