The process
There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to one to two days for a full suite, tidy-up included.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- Each item is left to cure, typically ready the next day.
Preparing for the visit
- Make sure the area is dry
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Let us know which floor the room is on

How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Whixley
Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. A full suite is usually done in one to two days. We work on avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured shower trays and whole bathroom suites, and common reasons people contact us are faded or patchy colour and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll come back. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Whixley: your questions answered
Can you turn my avocado bath white?
Yes. We resurface it in white with it left in place.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
How quickly can you book me in?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
How do I get a price for coloured bath resurfacing in Whixley?
Resurfacing from £350. Every job gets a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Can you do the toilet too?
Ask us. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we will advise honestly before quoting.
Repairing versus replacing in Whixley
Replacing a coloured suite involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white changes the colour without taking anything out. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. 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.
Why us?

What coloured bath resurfacing costs
Resurfacing from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Whixley. The price reflects:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The size and number of damaged areas
A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed quote
You can usually get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Something in shot to show the size
- Where you are, by postcode
- A wider photo showing the whole suite
There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
What we’re called out for in Whixley
Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. The problem is normally the colour, not the bath.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- Faded or patchy colour
- A suite that does not match a new bathroom
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
Comparing quotes
- What prep work is covered

Landlords, agents and businesses in Whixley
If you manage property in Whixley, we will quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we will come back with a combined price.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
What we can’t put right
A repair is not always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:
- 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)
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

What else we do in Whixley
DIY kit or professional repair?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
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 frequently lifts.
