Coloured bath resurfacing in Lytchett Matravers, done in place
We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. A full suite is typically done in one to two days. If you are dealing with a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and selling or letting a home with an old suite, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing turns it white with everything left in place. Prices start from £350. 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. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

What else we do in Lytchett Matravers
How the visit works
Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a day or two, depending on how many items, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- The surface is prepared and primed.
- The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
- Once cured, normally by the next day, the suite is ready.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
Ask for a price
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We’ll say right away whether it can be repaired.
Related advice
Landlord and trade work in Lytchett Matravers
Letting agents often send us pictures 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.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

How we price coloured bath resurfacing
Prices start from £350. We price every job individually, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The colour and finish to match
- Access to the area
- The material
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from photos
Phone photos are fine, there is no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Where you are, by postcode
If you’re in Lytchett Matravers and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
Can I fix it myself?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully 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.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
When a repair is not the answer
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)
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
