Ockbrook questions
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.
Do you cover Ockbrook?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Ockbrook and the rest of Derbyshire. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can you quote from pictures?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
How do I get a price for coloured bath resurfacing in Ockbrook?
Prices start from £350. Every job gets a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item with your DE72 postcode.
What about the toilet?
Talk to us first. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we’ll tell you what will last.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.
Coloured bath resurfacing in Ockbrook without replacing anything
We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. A full suite is usually done in one to two days. Whether it’s faded or patchy colour and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, we can help, whatever the material.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we will come back. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

What happens on the day
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we are there. Protection goes down first, then the work takes one to two days for a full suite. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- The room is protected and ventilated.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
- Each item is left to cure, normally ready the next day.
Preparing for the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Make sure the area is dry
Getting a price
To get a price, send two or three photos using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
Advice
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
Common problems we fix in Ockbrook
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. The problem is generally the colour, not the bath.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- A suite that does not 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 booking
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- What prep work is covered
- If travel is included in the price
- How the room is protected while they work
When a repair is not the answer
In fairness, 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 photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
Materials we repair
- Whole bathroom suites
- Coloured basins
- Coloured shower trays
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a coloured suite means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white changes the colour with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Why us?
- Work done at your home or business
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface

What affects the price in Ockbrook
Prices start from £350. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How much damage there is
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether we combine several jobs
We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Send pictures for a quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Any details about the material
- Details of any past repairs
Send us a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Ockbrook, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
