Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Harlaxton
Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. A full suite is usually done in one to two days. We work on coloured basins, coloured shower trays and avocado, pampas and pink baths, and the jobs we see most are a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and faded or patchy colour.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

DIY kit or professional repair?
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.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, 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 isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

For landlords and businesses
Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
When a repair isn’t the answer
A repair is not always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. We can’t fix:
- 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)
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.
What we work on
- Coloured shower trays
- Coloured basins
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Whole bathroom suites
When to call us in Harlaxton
Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and many are still sound. It’s usually the colour that dates them, not the condition.
The things customers typically mention when they call are:
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- Faded or patchy colour
- A suite that does not match a new bathroom
What your quote should include
- What happens if they find more damage
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- Whether they match the colour on site
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
Questions from Harlaxton
Will the price change on the day?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Do you work in Harlaxton?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Harlaxton and the rest of Lincolnshire. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
What information do you need?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you’ll get one combined price.
How we price coloured bath resurfacing
Resurfacing from £350. We do not charge extra for travel to Harlaxton. The price comes down to:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The type of damage
- How hard the colour is to match
- How much damage there is
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Quotes from your photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- Details of any past repairs
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- The material, if you know it
- A wider photo showing the whole suite
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
How the visit works
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes one to two days for a full suite. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead.
- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- 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 next day, the suite is ready.
How to prepare
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
