About our coloured bath resurfacing in Compton Bishop
Most suites take one or two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. Our repair technicians work on whole bathroom suites, coloured basins and avocado, pampas and pink baths, and common reasons people get in touch are selling or letting a home with an old suite and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom.
All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Somerset. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Repairing versus replacing in Compton Bishop
Replacing a coloured suite involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white changes the colour with everything left in place. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

How it works
On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job typically takes a day or two, depending on how many items. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
- We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
- Each item is left to cure, normally ready the day after.
Getting ready for the visit
- Ensure the area is dry
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Questions from Compton Bishop
Can you do the toilet too?
Talk to us first. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we’ll advise honestly before quoting.
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
How much does coloured bath resurfacing cost in Compton Bishop?
Resurfacing from £350. We give a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item with your BS26 postcode.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire suite and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
Do you come to Compton Bishop?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Compton Bishop and the rest of Somerset. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
What affects the price in Compton Bishop
Resurfacing from £350. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:
- How much damage there is
- Access to the area
- The material
- Unusual colours or finishes
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.
Getting a price from photos
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- One picture of the whole suite
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole suite, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
