Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Diseworth
We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. A full suite is generally done in one to two days. Whether it’s faded or patchy colour and selling or letting a home with an old suite, we can normally put it right.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Diseworth and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a coloured suite means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white changes the colour with everything left in place. 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 combining items on one visit brings it down.

FAQs for Diseworth
What happens if you find more damage?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
You will get a fixed quote back, generally with dates to choose from. You are under no obligation.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Can a coloured bath be made white?
Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Usually, yes. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.
DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

Do you need coloured bath resurfacing in Diseworth?

- Selling or letting a home with an old suite

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. We do not charge extra for travel to Diseworth. The price depends on:
- How much damage there is
- Access to the area
- What the surface is made of
- Doing more than one item at once
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Getting a price from pictures
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- Any details about the material
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Details of any past repairs
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
How it works
We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. You can expect it to take one to two days for a full suite, and we will keep you posted as we go.
- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- Once cured, normally by the day after, the suite is ready.
How to prepare
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Keep a parking space free if you can
Getting a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the suite, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
