- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- We key 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 next day.

Coloured bath resurfacing in Battlescombe, done in place
We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. Typical jobs include a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, on coloured basins, coloured shower trays and whole bathroom suites.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll come back. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Other services in Battlescombe
For landlords and businesses
If you manage property in Battlescombe, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we will price them together.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Battlescombe as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Access to the area
- Unusual colours or finishes
- What the surface is made of
We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Getting a price from photos
Two or three clear photos are usually enough. It helps if you send:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A wider photo showing the entire suite
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, 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 won’t last.
Common questions in Battlescombe
What happens after I send pictures?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote with dates.
Will there be a smell?
There can be some smell while we work. It fades as everything cures.
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. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white changes the colour with everything left in place. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
