Coloured Bath Resurfacing for Watermead homes
Resurfacing coloured baths, basins and trays in white in Watermead, carried out at your home and guaranteed for a year.
- Resurfacing from £350
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- A suite that does not match a new bathroom
Coloured bath resurfacing in Watermead, done in place
Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there is no plumbing or tiling. A full suite is normally done in one to two days. We regularly repair avocado, pampas and pink baths, whole bathroom suites and coloured basins, and the jobs we see most are selling or letting a home with an old suite and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll sort it. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

For landlords and businesses
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
If you manage property in Watermead, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.
Questions from Watermead
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Do you cover Watermead?
We do. Technicians travel to Watermead from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
What happens if you find more damage?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
How soon can you come?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
When to call us in Watermead
Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and many are still sound. It’s generally the colour that dates them, not the condition.
If you can see any of these, send us a picture:
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- Faded or patchy colour
What to look for in a quote
- What happens if they find more damage
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- When it can be used again
- How to care for the finish
How the visit works
Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a day or two, depending on how many items, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
- Each item is left to cure, typically ready the day after.
How to prepare
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Open a window if you can
Ask for a price
There is 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 reply with a fixed price.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a coloured suite involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing turns it white without taking anything out. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- Access to the area
- The type of damage
- How many items we do on one visit
- How many areas need work
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
How to get a fixed price
You can usually get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
Send us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you are in Watermead, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
Honest limits
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- 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 pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
