Repair or replace in Westdene?
Replacing a coloured suite involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing changes the colour with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.

How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Westdene
Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. A full suite is generally done in one to two days. Common call-outs are for a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and selling or letting a home with an old suite, in coloured basins, coloured shower trays and avocado, pampas and pink baths.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once we’ve gone. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Westdene. The price reflects:
- How hard the colour is to match
- How many items we do on one visit
- The type of damage
- How many areas need work
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Getting a price from pictures
When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Something in shot to show the size
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- The material, if you know it
Most clients in Westdene get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Westdene
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
Common problems we fix in Westdene
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.
You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:
- 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 doesn’t match a new bathroom
What your quote should include
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
- How to care for the finish
- When it can be used again
- How the room is protected while they work
DIY kit or professional repair?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
What a repair cannot fix
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’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)
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
What we work on
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Whole bathroom suites
- Coloured shower trays
- Coloured basins

Questions from Westdene
Can you turn my avocado bath white?
Yes. We resurface it in white with it left in place.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
What information do you need?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and you’ll get one combined price.
Do you cover the entire of Brighton and Hove?
We work UK-wide, so Westdene is covered. Prices don’t change with location.
Can tenants book a repair?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
How the visit works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Allow one to two days for a full suite from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- 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.
- Each item is left to cure, normally ready the day after.
Getting ready for the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
Getting a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole suite, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
