When to call us in Withleigh
Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s 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:
- 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

Coloured bath resurfacing in Withleigh without replacing anything
A full suite is generally done in one to two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there is no plumbing or tiling. We work on whole bathroom suites, coloured basins and avocado, pampas and pink baths, and people most frequently call us about faded or patchy colour and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Repairing versus replacing in Withleigh
Replacing a coloured suite means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white changes the colour without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

What a repair cannot fix
We will not take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:
- 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 pictures and we’ll say what we think.

Withleigh: your questions answered
What happens after I send photos?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
How do I get a price for coloured bath resurfacing in Withleigh?
Resurfacing from £350. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Can pets and children be at home?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
What happens if you find more damage?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Can you do the toilet too?
Talk to us first. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we’ll tell you what will last.
What coloured bath resurfacing costs
Resurfacing from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How much damage there is
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.
Getting a price from pictures
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- Any details about the material
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Where you are, by postcode
- A wider photo showing the entire suite
To get a price, send two or three pictures through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
The process
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you’re happy with the plan. Most jobs take one to two days for a full suite, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- 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.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- Once cured, normally by the next day, the suite is ready.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
Getting a price
Most customers in Withleigh get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Can I fix it myself?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Withleigh as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
