Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Wrabness
We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. A full suite is generally done in one to two days. Our repair technicians work on coloured shower trays, avocado, pampas and pink baths and coloured basins, and people most often call us about a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and selling or letting a home with an old suite.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a coloured suite involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white turns it white without taking anything out. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
What you get with us
- We leave the room as we found it
- Most jobs done in one visit

When we would advise against a repair
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- 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)
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
What we work on
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Coloured basins
- Coloured shower trays
- Whole bathroom suites
Should I try a DIY kit first?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
How it works
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. It typically takes a day or two, depending on how many items, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
- We leave everything to cure, typically until the day after.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Make sure the room can be ventilated

We review the photos and send a fixed quote with dates.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:
- How hard the colour is to match
- What kind of damage it is
- What the surface is made of
- How much damage there is
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Quotes from your photos
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- One picture of the entire suite
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, and you will get a fixed figure back.
What we are called out for in Wrabness

- Faded or patchy colour
- A suite that does not match a new bathroom
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
