Coloured bath resurfacing in Cosby, done in place
A full suite is usually done in one to two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. If you’re dealing with a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, we can usually put it right.
You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

The process
The work is clean and fairly quiet. Protection goes down first, then the work takes one to two days for a full suite. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- The surface is prepared and primed.
- The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
- Once cured, normally by the day after, the suite is ready.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Clear the area around the damage
Ask for a price
Upload pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your LE9 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Do you come to Cosby?
We do. Technicians travel to Cosby from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Can you quote from photos?
Usually, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
How much does coloured bath resurfacing cost in Cosby?
Prices start from £350. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
What we are called out for in Cosby
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. It’s typically the colour that dates them, not the condition.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
- Faded or patchy colour
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
What your quote should include
- How to care for the finish
- What prep work is covered
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- Whether they match the colour on site
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- What the surface is made of
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Unusual colours or finishes
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
How to get a fixed quote
Phone photos are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Make sure they show:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A wider photo showing the entire suite
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Details of any past repairs
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
What we can’t put right
Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:
- 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)
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
Materials we repair
- Coloured basins
- Coloured shower trays
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Whole bathroom suites

Repairing versus replacing in Cosby
Replacing a coloured suite means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing turns it white with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

- Rooms protected and left tidy
- No extra charge for your area
- Fixed prices from your pictures
- Colour-matched on site
See our pricing and resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.
Can I fix it myself?
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, and the work is guaranteed.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
