- Resurfacing from £350
- Faded or patchy colour
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
What coloured bath resurfacing costs
Resurfacing from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Hognaston. The price reflects:
- What the surface is made of
- How many items we do on one visit
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Getting a price from pictures
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A wider photo showing the entire suite
- Something in shot to show the size
Most clients in Hognaston get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Hognaston
Most suites take one or two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there is no plumbing or tiling. We work on whole bathroom suites, avocado, pampas and pink baths and coloured shower trays, and the jobs we see most are selling or letting a home with an old suite and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Should you replace it?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white turns it white with everything left in place. Prices start from £350. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

FAQs for Hognaston
How do I book?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
What areas do you cover?
The whole UK, including all of Derbyshire. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We come back with a fixed quote, normally with dates to choose from. There is no obligation to book.
Are there extra charges for Hognaston?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Can you quote from photos?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Hognaston
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
What we do, step by step
There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to one to two days for a full suite, including clearing up.
- The room is protected and ventilated.
- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
- Once cured, normally by the following day, the suite is ready.
Preparing for the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
Ask for a price
Send us pictures of the damage and one of the entire item, with your DE6 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

DIY kit or professional repair?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
