Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Ilkeston
Most suites take one or two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. Common call-outs are for a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and faded or patchy colour, on avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured shower trays and whole bathroom suites.
Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

What coloured bath resurfacing costs
Resurfacing from £350. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- What kind of damage it is
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The material
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking.
How to get a fixed quote
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Any details about the material
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Where you are, by postcode
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
What we do, step by step
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a day or two, depending on how many items. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- The room is protected and ventilated.
- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- The surface is prepared and primed.
- The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
- We leave everything to cure, normally until the next day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Open a window if you can
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

What else we do in Ilkeston
Work for landlords and builders
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a coloured suite means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white changes the colour with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Why book with us
- A fixed quote before booking
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- Colour-matched on site
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited

Ilkeston questions
Can you do the toilet too?
Ask us. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we will tell you what will last.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Which areas do you work in?
We work UK-wide, and that includes Ilkeston. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Can pets and children be at home?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Can you turn my avocado bath white?
Yes. We resurface it in white with it left in place.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
Do you work in Ilkeston?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Ilkeston. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
When we’d advise against a repair
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- 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)
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
