Coloured suite to white in Wareside, Hertfordshire
Fixed-price coloured bath resurfacing in Wareside and the surrounding area, typically in one visit.
- Resurfacing from £350
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Wareside
We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. If you’re dealing with faded or patchy colour and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, we can help, on avocado, pampas and pink baths, whole bathroom suites and coloured basins alike.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are covered after the visit. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

The process
We begin by going over the job with you. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. You can expect it to take one to two days for a full suite, and we will tell you if anything changes.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
- Once cured, normally by the following day, the suite is ready.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Open a window if you can
Ask for a price
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Related advice
Should I try a DIY kit first?
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.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
Common problems we fix in Wareside
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and many are still sound. The problem is typically the colour, not the bath.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Faded or patchy colour

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
FAQs for Wareside
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
What happens if you find more damage?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
What about the toilet?
Ask us. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we’ll advise honestly before quoting.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Doing more than one item at once
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The colour and finish to match
A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Quotes from your photos
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Natural light rather than flash
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- What it’s made of, if you know
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole suite, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
Repair or replace in Wareside?
Replacing a coloured suite means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white turns it white without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
