Coloured bath resurfacing in Lulworth Cove, 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. Our technicians work on coloured shower trays, coloured basins and avocado, pampas and pink baths, and people most often call us about a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and faded or patchy colour.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Lulworth Cove

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
Lulworth Cove: your questions answered
Are you a vetted contractor?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Which areas do you work in?
All of Dorset, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Do you come to Lulworth Cove?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Lulworth Cove. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can you do the toilet too?
Talk to us first. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we’ll advise honestly before quoting.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Will the price change on the day?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
What we do, step by step
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. You can expect it to take one to two days for a full suite, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.
- The room is protected and ventilated.
- We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
- The surface is prepared and primed.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- Each item is left to cure, usually ready the next day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Make sure the area is dry
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

What we’re called out for in Lulworth Cove
Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and many are still sound. The problem is normally the colour, not the bath.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- Faded or patchy colour
Questions to ask before you book
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- How soon you can use it again
- Whether they match the colour on site
- Who will actually do the work
Should you replace it?
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. Prices start from £350. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.

How we price coloured bath resurfacing
Prices start from £350. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The material and finish
- How hard the colour is to match
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.
Send photos for a quote
When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- A wider photo showing the entire suite
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Natural light rather than flash
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.
What a repair cannot fix
Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:
- 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.
