Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Cottesmore
Most suites take one or two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. We work on avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured shower trays and whole bathroom suites, and people most frequently call us about selling or letting a home with an old suite and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a coloured suite involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing changes the colour without taking anything out. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

What we are called out for in Cottesmore
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. It’s generally the colour that dates them, not the condition.
Send us a photo if you notice any of these:
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- Faded or patchy colour
- A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom

- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
The process
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which usually takes a day or two, depending on how many items. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- The surface is prepared and primed.
- We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
- Once cured, normally by the day after, the suite is ready.
Preparing for the visit
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

What affects the price in Cottesmore
Resurfacing from £350. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How many items we do on one visit
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.
Getting a price from pictures
Two or three clear pictures are normally enough. It helps if you send:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- The material, if you know it
- Details of any past repairs
Email us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you are in Cottesmore, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
Cottesmore questions
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
How much does coloured bath resurfacing cost in Cottesmore?
Resurfacing from £350. We give a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item with your LE15 postcode.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.
DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
