Coloured bath resurfacing in Upgate without replacing anything
A full suite is normally done in one to two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. Our technicians work on coloured shower trays, avocado, pampas and pink baths and coloured basins, and people most often call us about a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and faded or patchy colour.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will sort it. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

What happens on the day
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Allow a day or two, depending on how many items. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and how to look after it.
- The room is protected and ventilated.
- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- Each item is left to cure, normally ready the day after.
Before we arrive
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Ensure the area is dry
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
How to get a price

Upgate: your questions answered
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
How do I get a price for coloured bath resurfacing in Upgate?
Prices start from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Norfolk.
Do you cover the entire of Norfolk?
We work UK-wide, and that includes Upgate. Prices do not change with location.
Do the materials smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.
Honest limits
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:
- 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 photos and we will give you a straight answer before booking.
What we work on
- Coloured shower trays
- Whole bathroom suites
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Coloured basins
Can I fix it myself?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, 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.
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.

Should you replace it?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white changes the colour with everything left in place. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. 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.
