Repairing versus replacing in Corfe Mullen
Replacing a coloured suite involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white changes the colour without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Corfe Mullen
A full suite is normally done in one to two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. We work on coloured shower trays, whole bathroom suites and coloured basins, and common reasons people get in touch are selling or letting a home with an old suite and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The material and finish
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How much damage there is
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Corfe Mullen. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Getting a price from pictures
You can usually get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:
- A photo taken from further back
- Any details about the material
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Something in shot to show the size
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
How it works
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes one to two days for a full suite. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.
- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- We prepare 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, generally ready the next day.
Preparing for the visit
- Ensure the area is dry
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Honest limits

- 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 will say what we think before you book.

- Selling or letting a home with an old suite

Corfe Mullen questions
What areas do you cover?
Across the UK, and that includes Corfe Mullen. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. If pictures don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Is there a call-out fee?
There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
How do I get a price for coloured bath resurfacing in Corfe Mullen?
Prices start from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You will get a fixed figure before booking.
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?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
For landlords and businesses
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Corfe Mullen use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
