DIY repairs versus a professional job
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Donisthorpe
Most suites take one or two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there is no plumbing or tiling. We regularly repair coloured shower trays, coloured basins and avocado, pampas and pink baths, and people most frequently call us about a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

What coloured bath resurfacing costs
Prices start from £350. We do not charge extra for travel to Donisthorpe. The price depends on:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Unusual colours or finishes
- What kind of damage it is
- What the surface is made of
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Getting a price from photos
You can usually get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A wider photo showing the whole suite
- The material, if you know it
For a price in Donisthorpe, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Questions from Donisthorpe
I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Do you cover Donisthorpe?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Donisthorpe. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Which areas do you work in?
The whole UK, including all of Derbyshire. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll confirm dates.

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

How do I get a price for coloured bath resurfacing in Donisthorpe?

Can you turn my avocado bath white?
Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.
Work for landlords and builders
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Donisthorpe as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
Should you replace it?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white changes the colour with everything left in place. Prices start from £350. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.
Why Donisthorpe customers choose us
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- Nothing taken out or refitted
