About our coloured bath resurfacing in Ashwell
We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. A full suite is usually done in one to two days. Typical jobs include a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, across coloured shower trays, coloured basins and whole bathroom suites.
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Questions from Ashwell
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Can a coloured bath be made white?
Yes. We resurface it in white with it left in place.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
How soon can you come?
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 redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Landlord and trade work in Ashwell
For anyone letting property in or around Ashwell, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we will price them together.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
The process
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow one to two days for a full suite from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to care for it.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- The surface is prepared and primed.
- We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
- Each item is left to cure, generally ready the next day.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
How to get a price

Signs you need coloured bath resurfacing in Ashwell
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and many are still sound. The problem is generally the colour, not the bath.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Faded or patchy colour
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- A suite that does not match a new bathroom
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
Before booking anyone
- How to care for the finish
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- How soon you can use it again
- How the room is protected while they work
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a coloured suite means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white turns it white without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Why us?
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- One visit for most repairs
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
- Rooms protected and left tidy

DIY repairs versus a professional job
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
What affects the price in Ashwell
Resurfacing from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Access to the area
- The material
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Send pictures for a quote
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:

- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Something in shot to show the size
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole suite, we can price the job.
