FAQs for East Melbury
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
Can you quote from photos?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
What areas do you cover?
All of Dorset, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
Can you turn my avocado bath white?
Yes. We resurface it in white with it left in place.
Do you cover East Melbury?
We do. We send a technician to East Melbury for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Coloured bath resurfacing in East Melbury without replacing anything
Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. A full suite is normally done in one to two days. We are frequently asked to fix selling or letting a home with an old suite and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, across avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured shower trays and whole bathroom suites.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after the visit. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

What affects the price in East Melbury
Prices start from £350. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We take into account:
- What kind of damage it is
- The material
- How many items we do on one visit
- Unusual colours or finishes
Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
How to get a fixed price
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- Where you are, by postcode
- The material, if you know it
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Natural light rather than flash
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Do you need coloured bath resurfacing in East Melbury?
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and many are still sound. It’s normally the colour that dates them, not the condition.
Common reasons people in East Melbury contact us include:
- A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- Faded or patchy colour
What your quote should include
- If travel is included in the price
- How the colour is matched
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
- Whether a trained technician does the job
DIY kit or professional repair?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
What happens on the day
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take one to two days for a full suite, tidy-up included.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- The surface is prepared and primed.
- The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
- Once cured, normally by the day after, the suite is ready.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Clear the area around the damage
Get a quote
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.
