How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Thorpe St Andrew
We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. We’re often asked to fix selling or letting a home with an old suite and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, across coloured shower trays, whole bathroom suites and coloured basins.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The material and finish
- What kind of damage it is
- How many items we do on one visit
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Quotes from your pictures
Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- One picture of the whole suite
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Email us pictures of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Thorpe St Andrew, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

- The room is protected and ventilated.
- We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- We leave everything to cure, normally until the next day.
Getting ready for the visit

For landlords and businesses
If you manage property in Thorpe St Andrew, we will quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we’ll price them together.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
