Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Sutton Common
We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. If you are dealing with faded or patchy colour and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.
Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How hard the colour is to match
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
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 price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
How to get a fixed price
You can usually get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Most clients in Sutton Common get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

What we can’t put right
A repair is not right for every job, including:

- Items cracked right through
- Fittings and taps (these are masked, not recoloured)

Materials we repair

What happens on the day
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes one to two days for a full suite. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- 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, typically ready the next day.
Preparing for the visit
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Point us to the nearest place to park

How do I book?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787.

Prices start from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Can pets and children be at home?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Can you turn my avocado bath white?
Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.

- Faded or patchy colour
- A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom

- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- How soon you can use it again
Repair or replace: which is better?

Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
