How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Oborne
Most suites take one or two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Common call-outs are for a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and faded or patchy colour, across avocado, pampas and pink baths, whole bathroom suites and coloured basins.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Oborne as everywhere else we work. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Honest limits
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- 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.
Materials we repair
- Coloured basins

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. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

The process
We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. You can expect it to take a day or two, depending on how many items, and we will tell you if anything changes.
- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- Once cured, normally by the next day, the suite is ready.
Before we arrive
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Keep a parking space free if you can

Resurfacing from £350. We give a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item and your postcode.

Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Do you cover Oborne?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Oborne and the rest of Dorset. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

How we price coloured bath resurfacing
Resurfacing from £350. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- What kind of damage it is
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Doing more than one item at once
- What the surface is made of
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking.
Getting a price from photos
Two or three clear pictures are typically enough. It helps if you send:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.
For landlords and businesses
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Oborne as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

Can I fix it myself?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
