Coloured bath resurfacing in Lakenham without replacing anything
We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. A full suite is usually done in one to 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 coloured basins, whole bathroom suites and coloured shower trays.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Lakenham as everywhere else we work. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

What a repair can’t fix
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- 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)
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

What we do, step by step
Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes one to two days for a full suite, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- The surface is prepared and primed.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- We leave everything to cure, generally until the next day.
Before we arrive
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Let us know which floor the room is on

What coloured bath resurfacing costs
Resurfacing from £350. There’s no charge for travel to Lakenham. The price depends on:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- What kind of damage it is
- The material and finish
- Unusual colours or finishes
Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
How to get a fixed quote
Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. Try to include:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Any details about the material
- Where you are, by postcode
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
Common problems we fix in Lakenham
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and many are still sound. It’s typically the colour that dates them, not the condition.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Faded or patchy colour
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- A suite that does not match a new bathroom
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
What your quote should include
- Who will actually do the work
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- How your room will be protected
- How the colour is matched
Can I fix it myself?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a coloured suite involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing turns it white with everything left in place. Prices start from £350. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Lakenham. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Why book with us

FAQs for Lakenham
What about the toilet?
Talk to us first. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we’ll tell you what will last.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Do the materials smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It fades as everything cures.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Are you accredited?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Can you quote from photos?
Usually, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
