Your questions about coloured bath resurfacing in Kilby Bridge
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work. It fades as everything cures.
What about the toilet?
Talk to us first. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we will advise honestly before quoting.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.
Can a coloured bath be made white?
Yes. We resurface it in white with it left in place.
What information do you need?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Coloured bath resurfacing in Kilby Bridge without replacing anything
A full suite is usually done in one to two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. If you are dealing with faded or patchy colour and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, we can normally put it right.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Kilby Bridge and across Leicestershire. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

For landlords and businesses
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll handle the rest.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Kilby Bridge as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

How we price coloured bath resurfacing
Prices start from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Access to the area
- How many items we do on one visit
- What the surface is made of
Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Getting a price from pictures
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:
- Something in shot to show the size
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- The material, if you know it
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Kilby Bridge. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

How the visit works
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take one to two days for a full suite. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
- We leave everything to cure, usually until the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
