Coloured suite to white in Sutton, Shropshire
Resurfacing coloured baths, basins and trays in white in Sutton, carried out at your home and guaranteed for a year.
- Resurfacing from £350
- A suite that does not match a new bathroom

Coloured bath resurfacing in Sutton without replacing anything
Most suites take one or two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. Typical jobs include selling or letting a home with an old suite and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, across coloured shower trays, avocado, pampas and pink baths and coloured basins.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we will sort it. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Signs you need coloured bath resurfacing in Sutton
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. The problem is typically the colour, not the bath.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- A suite that does not match a new bathroom
- Faded or patchy colour
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
What your quote should include
- How long it needs to cure
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- How the colour is matched
How it works
You don’t need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. It typically takes a day or two, depending on how many items, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- Once cured, normally by the following day, the suite is ready.
How to prepare
- Let us know about parking or access
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Let us know which floor the room is on

Advice
Work for landlords and builders
For anyone letting property in or around Sutton, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we will come back with a combined price.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
What coloured bath resurfacing costs
Prices start from £350. We price every job individually, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- What kind of damage it is
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The material and finish
- How hard the colour is to match
A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.
Quotes from your pictures
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:
- Natural light rather than flash
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A wider photo showing the entire suite
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.
Sutton: your questions answered
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We come back with a fixed price. You are under no obligation.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
Is there any odour?
There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
What a repair cannot fix
In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- 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 pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

Should you replace it?
Replacing a coloured suite means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing turns it white with everything left in place. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.

See our pricing or resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.
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, then guarantee it for a year.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
