Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Dale Abbey
We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. Our technicians work on coloured shower trays, whole bathroom suites and coloured basins, and people most frequently call us about selling or letting a home with an old suite and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Dale Abbey and across Derbyshire. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

What a repair cannot fix
We will not take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- 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)
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Coloured shower trays
- Whole bathroom suites
Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The material
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Doing more than one item at once
A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Send photos for a quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A photo taken from further back
- Something in shot to show the size
- Any details about the material
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
Your questions about coloured bath resurfacing in Dale Abbey
Which areas do you work in?
The whole UK, including all of Derbyshire. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will confirm dates.
What happens after I send photos?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across Derbyshire.
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
What about the toilet?
Ask us. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we will tell you what will last.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Do you cover Dale Abbey?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Dale Abbey and the rest of Derbyshire. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- A suite that does not match a new bathroom

Can I fix it myself?
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Dale Abbey
For anyone letting property in or around Dale Abbey, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
How it works
You do not need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. It usually takes one to two days for a full suite, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- The room is protected and ventilated.
- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
- Each item is left to cure, generally ready the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
How to get a price
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job without visiting.
Advice
Repairing versus replacing in Dale Abbey
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing turns it white without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Dale Abbey. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
