Coloured Bath Resurfacing for Thorne homes
We travel to Thorne for resurfacing coloured baths, basins and trays in white. Everything is done in place, and the work is guaranteed.
- Resurfacing from £350
- Faded or patchy colour
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
What coloured bath resurfacing costs
Resurfacing from £350. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The material and finish
- How much damage there is
Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Getting a price from pictures
Phone photos are fine, there is no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- The material, if you know it
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- One picture of the whole suite
Upload photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your DN8 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Thorne
Most suites take one or two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. Whether it’s selling or letting a home with an old suite and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once we have gone. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

When to call us in Thorne
Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. It’s normally the colour that dates them, not the condition.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- Faded or patchy colour
- A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
What your quote should include
- How your room will be protected
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- When it can be used again
- What aftercare is recommended
DIY repairs versus a professional job
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Honest limits
To be straight with you, some problems need a different 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)
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
What we work on
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Coloured shower trays
- Whole bathroom suites
- Coloured basins
Thorne: your questions answered
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
How do I book?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.
What areas do you cover?
Everywhere in the UK, Thorne included. Travel is included in the price.
What about the toilet?
Talk to us first. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we’ll tell you what will last.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
The process
Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Plan for one to two days for a full suite from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
- We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
- Once cured, normally by the next day, the suite is ready.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Should you replace it?
Replacing a coloured suite means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing changes the colour without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Thorne. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Why book with us
- We come to you, anywhere in the UK
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited
- Same prices wherever you are
- We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
