About our coloured bath resurfacing in Saxton
We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. A full suite is generally done in one to two days. If you’re dealing with faded or patchy colour and selling or letting a home with an old suite, we can help, whatever the material.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Your questions about coloured bath resurfacing in Saxton
What about the toilet?
Ask us. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we’ll advise honestly before quoting.
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
Can a coloured bath be made white?
Yes. We resurface it in white with it left in place.
What areas do you cover?
We work UK-wide, so Saxton is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.
What happens next?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.
Landlord and trade work in Saxton
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Saxton as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details.
What happens on the day
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take a day or two, depending on how many items, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- 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 day after, the suite is ready.
Before we arrive
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
Ask for a price
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
Repairing versus replacing in Saxton
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing changes the colour without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.
Why choose Surface Doctor in Saxton
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
- Nothing taken out or refitted

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:
- What the surface is made of
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Unusual colours or finishes
We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Saxton. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Send photos for a quote
Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Where you are, by postcode
Email us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your LS24 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
