Coloured bath resurfacing near Tisman's Common

How the visit works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which generally takes one to two days for a full suite. If anything looks different from your pictures, we’ll talk to you before going ahead. Somewhere as small as Tisman's Common, access is normally the main thing to plan. Once on site, the job is the same as anywhere.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
  3. The surface is prepared and primed.
  4. The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
  5. We leave everything to cure, typically until the next day.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Getting a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole suite, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Do you need coloured bath resurfacing in Tisman's Common?

Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. It’s usually the colour that dates them, not the condition.

Look out for these signs:

  • Faded or patchy colour
  • A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
  • A suite that does not match a new bathroom
  • Selling or letting a home with an old suite

If you live in one of the older homes near a church such as St John the Baptist, an original cast iron or steel bath is worth keeping, and coloured bath resurfacing gives it years more use.

What to look for in a quote

  • How long it needs to cure
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges

What we can’t put right

In fairness, 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)

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Repairing versus replacing in Tisman's Common

Replacing a coloured suite involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white changes the colour without taking anything out. In an older home in a village like Tisman's Common, replacing a suite can be harder than it sounds: original pieces may not match modern sizes, and access can be awkward. A repair keeps the original.

Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.

What you get with us

  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • No extra charge for your area
  • One visit for most repairs
  • We leave the room as we found it

Can I fix it myself?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

How we price coloured bath resurfacing

Prices start from £350. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:

  • What the surface is made of
  • The type of damage
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The colour and finish to match

We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Tisman's Common. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

How to get a fixed quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A photo taken from further back

We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.
