Coloured bath resurfacing in Saundby without replacing anything
We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. A full suite is generally done in one to two days. We work on whole bathroom suites, coloured shower trays and coloured basins, and the jobs we see most are a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and faded or patchy colour.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

What affects the price in Saundby
Prices start from £350. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. These are the things that affect it:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How hard the colour is to match
- How many items we do on one visit
- The type of damage
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Saundby. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Send photos for a quote
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
Most customers in Saundby get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
What happens on the day
There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to a day or two, depending on how many items, including clearing up.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- 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
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
Getting a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

Questions from Saundby
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Do you charge for travel?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can you quote from pictures?
Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
How quickly can you book me in?
We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Do you work in Saundby?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Saundby. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Do you cover the entire of Nottinghamshire?
We cover the whole UK, including Saundby and the rest of Nottinghamshire. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.
Common problems we fix in Saundby
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. It’s typically the colour that dates them, not the condition.

- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- Faded or patchy colour
- A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite

When we’d advise against a repair
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, including:
- 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.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Saundby
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Saundby use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.
DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
