Coloured bath resurfacing in Lane End, done in place
Most suites take one or two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there is no plumbing or tiling. We are often asked to fix a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and faded or patchy colour, in whole bathroom suites, avocado, pampas and pink baths and coloured basins.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Lane End 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.

DIY kit or professional repair?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
When a repair isn’t the answer
We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- 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’ll tell you honestly.
Surfaces we repair

- Avocado, pampas and pink baths

Landlord and trade work in Lane End
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we will handle the rest.
Lane End questions
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Typically, yes. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send photos.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Can pets and children be at home?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Can you quote from pictures?
Normally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
What do you need from me?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

What else we do in Lane End
What coloured bath resurfacing costs
Resurfacing from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- Doing more than one item at once
- What kind of damage it is
- How many areas need work
- How easy the damage is to reach
Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Quotes from your pictures
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- One picture of the whole suite
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Where you are, by postcode
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
What we do, step by step
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for one to two days for a full suite. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and how to look after it.
- The room is protected and ventilated.
- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- The surface is prepared and primed.
- The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
- We leave everything to cure, generally until the following day.
Before we arrive
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Clear the area around the damage

What we’re called out for in Lane End
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. The problem is typically the colour, not the bath.
The things clients usually mention when they call are:
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- Faded or patchy colour
- A suite that does not match a new bathroom
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
Before booking anyone
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- How the room is protected while they work
Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing turns it white with everything left in place. Prices start from £350. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
