Coloured bath resurfacing near Sutton St James

Should you replace it?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white changes the colour without taking anything out. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Sutton St James. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Why us?

  • One visit for most repairs
  • Everything repaired in place
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Same prices wherever you are

Coloured bath resurfacing in Sutton St James, done in place

We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. We work on avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured shower trays and coloured basins, and the jobs we see most are a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and selling or letting a home with an old suite.

All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

What happens on the day

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Allow a day or two, depending on how many items from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
  3. The surface is prepared and primed.
  4. The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
  5. We leave everything to cure, usually until the next day.

How to prepare

  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Getting a price

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:

  • The material
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How much damage there is
  • Access to the area

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Send pictures for a quote

Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. Try to include:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A wider photo showing the whole suite
  • What it’s made of, if you know

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.
