Coloured Bath Resurfacing for Knutton homes
Our technicians come to Knutton for resurfacing coloured baths, basins and trays in white. Everything is done in place, and the work is guaranteed.
- Resurfacing from £350
- Faded or patchy colour
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
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 generally cheaper.
About our coloured bath resurfacing in Knutton
Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. Typical jobs include a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and faded or patchy colour, in coloured shower trays, avocado, pampas and pink baths and whole bathroom suites.
We guarantee the work for a year. 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: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Repairing versus replacing in Knutton
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white turns it white with everything left in place. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

FAQs for Knutton
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
What about the toilet?
Talk to us first. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we’ll advise honestly before quoting.
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole suite and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
How quickly can you book me in?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Is there a call-out fee?
We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.

Advice
How we price coloured bath resurfacing
Prices start from £350. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. The main factors are:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How much damage there is
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How hard the colour is to match
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Getting a price from pictures
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Details of any past repairs
- The material, if you know it
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
Email us pictures of the damage and one of the entire item, with your ST5 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
