Coloured bath resurfacing in Ackergillshore, done in place
We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. A full suite is typically done in one to two days. We work on coloured basins, whole bathroom suites and coloured shower trays, and people most often call us about faded or patchy colour and selling or letting a home with an old suite.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book. Look after 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 make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
FAQs for Ackergillshore
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
How do I get a price for coloured bath resurfacing in Ackergillshore?
Prices start from £350. We give a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item and your postcode.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
What do you need from me?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Can you turn my avocado bath white?
Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.
Can pets and children be at home?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
When a repair isn’t the answer
We will 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)
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
Materials we repair
- Coloured basins
- Whole bathroom suites
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Coloured shower trays
What affects the price in Ackergillshore
Resurfacing from £350. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How much damage there is
- What the surface is made of
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Quotes from your photos
Phone photos are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- The material, if you know it
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
To get a price, send two or three pictures through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
Landlord and trade work in Ackergillshore
Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Ackergillshore as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a coloured suite means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing changes the colour without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.
Why book with us
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
- Generally one visit, start to finish
- Same prices wherever you are
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish

How it works
There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. The job generally runs to a day or two, depending on how many items, including clearing up.
- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
- We key 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.
How to prepare
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
How to get a price
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.
