How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Fleming Field
Most suites take one or two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. We regularly repair whole bathroom suites, coloured basins and coloured shower trays, and common reasons people contact us are selling or letting a home with an old suite and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

What coloured bath resurfacing costs
Resurfacing from £350. You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How much damage there is
- Doing more than one item at once
- The type of damage
A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Details of any past repairs
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
To get a price, send two or three photos using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
Can I fix it myself?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
Fleming Field questions
Can tenants book a repair?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Are there extra charges for Fleming Field?
We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.
How much does coloured bath resurfacing cost in Fleming Field?
Prices start from £350. Every job gets a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item with your DH6 postcode.
Will there be a smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Do you come to Fleming Field?
We do. We send a technician to Fleming Field for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Repairing versus replacing in Fleming Field
Replacing a coloured suite means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white changes the colour without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
