- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- Faded or patchy colour
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
Questions to ask before you book

How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Woolpit Heath
We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. If you’re dealing with faded or patchy colour and selling or letting a home with an old suite, we can normally put it right.
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. 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.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
When a repair isn’t the answer
We’d rather lose a job than do one 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 photos and we will say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Whole bathroom suites
- Coloured basins
- Coloured shower trays
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
Your questions about coloured bath resurfacing in Woolpit Heath
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire suite and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
When can you do it?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Do you come to Woolpit Heath?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Woolpit Heath. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Do you cover the whole of Suffolk?
All of Suffolk, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
Can a coloured bath be made white?
Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
What coloured bath resurfacing costs
Prices start from £350. We don’t charge extra for travel to Woolpit Heath. The price comes down to:
- How many items we do on one visit
- The material
- How easy the damage is to reach
- What kind of damage it is
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
Quotes from your photos
You can generally get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Where you are, by postcode
- What it’s made of, if you know
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job without visiting.
Work for landlords and builders
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.

What else we do in Woolpit Heath
Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white turns it white without taking anything out. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Why choose Surface Doctor in Woolpit Heath
- Fixed prices from your photos
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- Colour-matched on site
