Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Pipe and Lyde
Most suites take one or two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. We regularly repair coloured basins, whole bathroom suites and coloured shower trays, and the jobs we see most are a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and faded or patchy colour.
Every job is backed for twelve months in Pipe and Lyde and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- Faded or patchy colour
- A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom

Pipe and Lyde: your questions answered
What about the toilet?
Talk to us first. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we’ll tell you what will last.
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It clears as the materials cure.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
What information do you need?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
What happens next?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.

DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
What we do, step by step
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for a day or two, depending on how many items from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and how to look after it.
- The room is protected and ventilated.
- 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.
- Each item is left to cure, typically ready the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Ensure the area is dry
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
Ask for a price
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, 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.
