Coloured bath resurfacing in Dolphin Town, done in place
A full suite is usually done in one to two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. We regularly repair avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured basins and whole bathroom suites, and people most frequently call us about selling or letting a home with an old suite and faded or patchy colour.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll sort it. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

For landlords and businesses
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.
Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

Can I fix it myself?
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, then guarantee it for a year.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
What coloured bath resurfacing costs
Prices start from £350. There’s no area surcharge for Dolphin Town. What changes the price is:
- How many areas need work
- How many items we do on one visit
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The material
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Getting a price from pictures
Two or three clear photos are normally enough. It helps if you send:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Details of any past repairs
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- What it’s made of, if you know
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
When we would advise against a repair
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- 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)
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
