About our coloured bath resurfacing in Whitegate
We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there is no plumbing or tiling. A full suite is generally done in one to two days. If you are dealing with a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and faded or patchy colour, we can normally put it right.
All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

DIY kit or professional repair?
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 doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
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.
When to call us in Whitegate
Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. The problem is generally the colour, not the bath.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- Faded or patchy colour
- A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
Questions to ask before booking

Common questions in Whitegate
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
What happens next?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.
Are there extra charges for Whitegate?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Can pets and children be at home?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Can a coloured bath be made white?
Yes. We resurface it in white with it left in place.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
What coloured bath resurfacing costs
Resurfacing from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Unusual colours or finishes
- What kind of damage it is
- How many items we do on one visit
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Quotes from your pictures
You can typically get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- The material, if you know it
For a price in Whitegate, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
What happens on the day
Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes one to two days for a full suite, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- The surface is prepared and primed.
- The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
- Once cured, normally by the day after, the suite is ready.
Before we arrive
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
Ask for a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

For landlords and businesses
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Repair or replace in Whitegate?
Replacing a coloured suite involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing turns it white without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. A few things move the price: 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.
