Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Desford
We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there is no plumbing or tiling. A full suite is typically done in one to two days. Common call-outs are for a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and faded or patchy colour, in coloured basins, coloured shower trays and whole bathroom suites.
You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

When a repair isn’t the answer
We won’t take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot 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)
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Coloured basins
- Whole bathroom suites
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Coloured shower trays
Landlords, agents and businesses in Desford
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a coloured suite means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white turns it white without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Why us?
- No extra charge for your area
- Work done at your home or business
- One visit for most repairs
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish

The process
We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take a day or two, depending on how many items, and we leave the room as we found it.
- The room is protected and ventilated.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
- Each item is left to cure, usually ready the following day.
Before we arrive
- Ensure the area is dry
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
Ask for a price
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
Advice
Your questions about coloured bath resurfacing in Desford
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
Can you price it without visiting?
Generally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
What areas do you cover?
We cover the whole UK, including Desford and the rest of Leicestershire. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
Can a coloured bath be made white?
Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.
Can you do the toilet too?
Talk to us first. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we’ll advise honestly before quoting.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

When to call us in Desford
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and many are still sound. It’s typically the colour that dates them, not the condition.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- A suite that does not match a new bathroom
- Faded or patchy colour
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
Comparing quotes
- How the room is protected while they work
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- What aftercare is recommended
Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. You will know the full cost before booking. We look at:
- What the surface is made of
- How much damage there is
- The type of damage
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Quotes from your pictures
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A wider photo showing the entire suite
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire suite, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
