How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Lamarsh
We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there is no plumbing or tiling. A full suite is generally done in one to two days. Our technicians work on coloured shower trays, whole bathroom suites and avocado, pampas and pink baths, and the jobs we see most are a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and faded or patchy colour.
Every job is backed for twelve months in Lamarsh and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Can I fix it myself?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

Repairing versus replacing in Lamarsh
Replacing a coloured suite involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white changes the colour without taking anything out. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We look at:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Doing more than one item at once
- Unusual colours or finishes
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Send pictures for a quote
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Something in shot to show the size
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
To get a price, send two or three pictures using our quote form or call us. We’ll say immediately if a repair is the right fix.
What a repair cannot fix
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can 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)
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Your questions about coloured bath resurfacing in Lamarsh
Do you come to Lamarsh?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Lamarsh. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
What information do you need?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
What about the toilet?
Talk to us first. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we’ll advise honestly before quoting.
What happens next?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
