Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Old Dalby
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. We regularly repair whole bathroom suites, coloured shower trays and avocado, pampas and pink baths, and the jobs we see most are a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and selling or letting a home with an old suite.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Repairing versus replacing in Old Dalby
Replacing a coloured suite involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing turns it white without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Honest limits
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- 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 before booking.

DIY kit or professional repair?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Old Dalby as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.
What affects the price in Old Dalby
Resurfacing from £350. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- How much damage there is
- Doing more than one item at once
- The colour and finish to match
- Access to the area
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Common questions in Old Dalby
What happens after I send photos?
You will get a fixed quote back, normally with dates to choose from. You’re under no obligation.
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work. It fades as everything cures.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Can you quote from pictures?
Generally, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
Do you charge for travel?
There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
How the visit works
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. The job generally runs to one to two days for a full suite.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
- We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
- We leave everything to cure, normally until the day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Make sure the area is dry
- Clear the area around the damage
Getting a price
Send us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your LE14 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
