Coloured bath resurfacing in Bullbridge 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. Whether it’s a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and faded or patchy colour, we can help, on coloured shower trays, avocado, pampas and pink baths and coloured basins alike.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a coloured suite involves 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. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.

What we do, step by step
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job generally takes one to two days for a full suite. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- The surface is prepared and primed.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- Each item is left to cure, usually ready the next day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
How to get a price
Upload a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Bullbridge, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

FAQs for Bullbridge
Which areas do you work in?
The entire UK, including all of Derbyshire. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will offer you dates.
What information do you need?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
What does coloured bath resurfacing cost?
Resurfacing from £350. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:
- How many areas need work
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The material and finish
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Getting a price from pictures
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A photo taken from further back
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole suite, we can price the job.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
When to call us in Bullbridge
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. It’s usually the colour that dates them, not the condition.
Send us a photo if you notice any of these:
- A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- Faded or patchy colour
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
