Typical jobs include a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and selling or letting a home with an old suite, in whole bathroom suites, coloured shower trays and coloured basins.

How it works
Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for one to two days for a full suite. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to care for it.
- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- Once cured, normally by the following day, the suite is ready.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear the area around the damage
- Let us know about parking or access
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
Getting a price
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.
Advice
Should I try a DIY kit first?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

What we can’t put right
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- 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)

Materials we work on in Vicarscross
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Whole bathroom suites
- Coloured basins
- Coloured shower trays
Should you replace it?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white turns it white with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Vicarscross: your questions answered
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Can you turn my avocado bath white?
Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you will get one combined price.
Is there any odour?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
What about the toilet?
Ask us. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we’ll tell you what will last.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.
When to call us in Vicarscross
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. It’s normally the colour that dates them, not the condition.

- 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
What your quote should include
- Who will actually do the work
- When it can be used again
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- How your room will be protected
How we price coloured bath resurfacing
Prices start from £350. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- The colour and finish to match
- How much damage there is
- Doing more than one item at once
- What the surface is made of
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Getting a price from photos
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A picture taken from further back
Most clients in Vicarscross get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
