When to call us in Uphall Station
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. The problem is generally the colour, not the bath.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Faded or patchy colour
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- A suite that does not match a new bathroom
Before you book anyone
- How soon you can use it again
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- Whether they match the colour on site
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
Coloured bath resurfacing in Uphall Station, done in place
We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. Whether it’s selling or letting a home with an old suite and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, we can help, on coloured shower trays, avocado, pampas and pink baths and coloured basins alike.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll sort it. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
Honest limits
Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. We can’t 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 photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Coloured basins

- Coloured shower trays
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. There is no area surcharge for Uphall Station. The price reflects:
- The colour and finish to match
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How many items we do on one visit
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
How to get a fixed quote
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Natural light rather than flash
- A picture taken from further back
- Where you are, by postcode
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the suite, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

The process
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Allow a day or two, depending on how many items from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- The surface is prepared and primed.
- The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
- Once cured, normally by the next day, the suite is ready.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
