About our coloured bath resurfacing in Dimsdale

Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. Our repair technicians work on coloured basins, coloured shower trays and whole bathroom suites, and common reasons people contact us are faded or patchy colour and selling or letting a home with an old suite.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

Signs you need coloured bath resurfacing in Dimsdale

Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and many are still sound. The problem is normally the colour, not the bath.

If you can see any of these, send us a photo:

  • A suite that does not match a new bathroom

Repairing versus replacing in Dimsdale

Replacing a coloured suite means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white changes the colour without taking anything out. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Why Dimsdale customers choose us

  • One visit for most repairs
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • A fixed quote before booking

FAQs for Dimsdale

Will there be a smell?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

Which areas do you work in?

All of Stoke-on-Trent, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.

Can pets and children be at home?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

Is the work guaranteed?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

How much does coloured bath resurfacing cost in Dimsdale?

Prices start from £350. We give a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

Do you come to Dimsdale?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Dimsdale and the rest of Stoke-on-Trent. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

What happens on the day

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. You can expect it to take one to two days for a full suite.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
  3. The surface is prepared and primed.
  4. We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
  5. Each item is left to cure, typically ready the day after.

How to prepare

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Let us know about parking or access

Getting a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire suite, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

When a repair is not the answer

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

  • 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.
