How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Lackford
We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. Typical jobs include selling or letting a home with an old suite and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, on whole bathroom suites, avocado, pampas and pink baths and coloured shower trays.
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Common questions in Lackford
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Are there extra charges for Lackford?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
What happens if you find more damage?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Do the materials smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.
Can you do the toilet too?
Ask us. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we will advise honestly before quoting.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
What affects the price in Lackford
Resurfacing from £350. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:
- How many items we do on one visit
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The colour and finish to match
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Getting a price from pictures
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Natural light rather than flash
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing turns it white without taking anything out. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Lackford. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Why book with us
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- A fixed quote before booking
- Most jobs done in one visit

Landlord and trade work in Lackford
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.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Lackford as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
Do you need coloured bath resurfacing in Lackford?
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. It’s normally the colour that dates them, not the condition.
Look out for these signs:
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- Faded or patchy colour
- A suite that does not match a new bathroom
