About our coloured bath resurfacing in Vassa
Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. A full suite is usually done in one to two days. We regularly repair coloured shower trays, coloured basins and whole bathroom suites, and people most often call us about faded or patchy colour and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Vassa and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Your questions about coloured bath resurfacing in Vassa
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Which areas do you work in?
The entire UK, including all of the Shetland Islands. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
What happens next?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
What affects the price in Vassa
Prices start from £350. We give every job a fixed price from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Vassa. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Send photos for a quote
Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Where you are, by postcode
- Something in shot to show the size
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
To get a price, send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We’ll say straight away whether it can be repaired.
The process
There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to a day or two, depending on how many items, tidy-up included.
- The room is protected and ventilated.
- We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
- Once cured, normally by the following day, the suite is ready.
Before we arrive
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Ensure the area is dry
Getting a price
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
Advice
When a repair is not the answer
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)
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.
Materials we work on in Vassa
- Coloured shower trays
- Whole bathroom suites
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Coloured basins
Do you need coloured bath resurfacing in Vassa?
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.
The most common problems we are called about are:
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- Faded or patchy colour
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
What to look for in a quote
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- Who will actually do the work
- How the room is protected while they work
Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing turns it white with everything left in place. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
- Generally one visit, start to finish

DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
