Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Darley Dale
Most suites take one or two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. We regularly repair avocado, pampas and pink baths, whole bathroom suites and coloured shower trays, and people most frequently call us about a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and faded or patchy colour.
Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

How the visit works
From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a day or two, depending on how many items, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- We leave everything to cure, generally until the next day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Let the surface dry out before the visit

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Should you replace it?

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Darley Dale. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

What coloured bath resurfacing costs
Prices start from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- How hard the colour is to match
- What kind of damage it is
- How many items we do on one visit
- How many areas need work
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from pictures
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- Details of any past repairs
- What it’s made of, if you know
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A wider photo showing the whole suite
Send us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Darley Dale, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Work for landlords and builders
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
FAQs for Darley Dale
Can you do the toilet too?
Ask us. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we will advise honestly before quoting.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Are you accredited?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
What areas do you cover?
We cover the whole UK, including Darley Dale and the rest of Derbyshire. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will offer you dates.
Can a coloured bath be made white?
Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.
