Fixed-price coloured bath resurfacing in Bourne and the surrounding area, generally in one visit.
- Resurfacing from £350

How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Bourne
We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. We work on whole bathroom suites, coloured shower trays and avocado, pampas and pink baths, and the jobs we see most are faded or patchy colour and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

When to call us in Bourne
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.
Get in touch if you’ve noticed:
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- A suite that does not match a new bathroom
- Faded or patchy colour
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
What to look for in a quote
- If travel is included in the price
- How the colour is matched
- How your room will be protected

Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- What kind of damage it is
- Doing more than one item at once
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The colour and finish to match
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Send pictures for a quote
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- The material, if you know it
- Where you are, by postcode
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
Most customers in Bourne get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing turns it white with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book.

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

Bourne questions
Can a coloured bath be made white?
Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Do the materials smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
What happens after I send pictures?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.
Can you quote from pictures?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.
Landlord and trade work in Bourne
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Lincolnshire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
If you manage property in Bourne, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we’ll price them together.
The process
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take a day or two, depending on how many items, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- The room is protected and ventilated.
- We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
- We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
- We leave everything to cure, normally until the day after.
How to prepare
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Open a window if you can
