Coloured bath resurfacing in Turves, done in place
A full suite is normally done in one to two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. Whether it’s a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and faded or patchy colour, we can typically put it right, on coloured basins, coloured shower trays and avocado, pampas and pink baths alike.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll come back. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Common problems we fix in Turves
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. It’s usually the colour that dates them, not the condition.

Landlord and trade work in Turves
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.
What happens on the day
From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a day or two, depending on how many items, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- The room is protected and ventilated.
- We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
- We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
- Each item is left to cure, usually ready the day after.
Getting ready for the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Clear the area around the damage
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access

What else we do in Turves
Turves questions
Do you work in Turves?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Turves for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
When can you do it?
We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
What about the toilet?
Talk to us first. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we will advise honestly before quoting.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
How do I book?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Is there any odour?
There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.
What coloured bath resurfacing costs
Resurfacing from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- How much damage there is
- Doing more than one item at once
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The material
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed quote
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Natural light rather than flash
- One picture of the entire suite
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or call us. We’ll say straight away if a repair is the right fix.
Can I fix it myself?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
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, a professional repair is worth it.
What we can’t put right
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)
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Coloured shower trays
- Whole bathroom suites
- Coloured basins
Should you replace it?
Replacing a coloured suite involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing turns it white with everything left in place. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
