Coloured bath resurfacing in Bankwood Gate without replacing anything
A full suite is usually done in one to two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. We’re often asked to fix selling or letting a home with an old suite and faded or patchy colour, on whole bathroom suites, coloured basins and coloured shower trays.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll come back. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

What affects the price in Bankwood Gate
Resurfacing from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- How hard the colour is to match
- The size and number of damaged areas
- What the surface is made of
- Whether we combine several jobs
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.
Send photos for a quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A wider photo showing the entire suite
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say immediately whether it can be repaired.
How the visit works
We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. Allow one to two days for a full suite, and we will tell you if anything changes.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- Once cured, normally by the day after, the suite is ready.
Before we arrive
- Make sure the area is dry
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
Ask for a price
Upload photos of the damage and one of the whole item, with your SK13 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
Work for landlords and builders
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Bankwood Gate as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
What a repair cannot fix
Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:
- 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’ll say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Coloured shower trays
- Coloured basins
- Whole bathroom suites
FAQs for Bankwood Gate
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you will get one combined price.
Do you cover Bankwood Gate?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Bankwood Gate and the rest of Derbyshire. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole suite and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Can pets and children be at home?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.
Can you do the toilet too?
Talk to us first. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we’ll advise honestly before quoting.
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 changes the colour without taking anything out. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
