Coloured bath resurfacing in Sileby, done in place
Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. If you’re dealing with selling or letting a home with an old suite and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.
Every job is backed for twelve months in Sileby and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
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 then the old filler has to be removed first.
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.
Where we work around Sileby
Sileby is about 5 miles south-east of Loughborough, in Leicestershire. We visit homes and businesses in Sileby and the surrounding area, so you do not need to take anything anywhere. Sileby is one of 287 places in Leicestershire we cover. We work right across the region, from Sileby to Birmingham (38 miles away).
All of LE12 is within our area, from the main roads to the quietest streets. That includes homes on High Street, Storer Close and Cemetery Road and the roads around them. If you are just outside Sileby, we cover Cossington (1 mile south), Mountsorrel (2 miles west), Rothley (2 miles south-west), Barrow upon Soar (2 miles north-west) and Walton on the Wolds (3 miles north).

How the visit works
From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes one to two days for a full suite, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- 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.
- We leave everything to cure, usually until the day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Ensure the area is dry
- Clear the area around the damage
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
Ask for a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire suite, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- How many areas need work
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Access to the area
- The type of damage
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
How to get a fixed price
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:
- Details of any past repairs
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- One picture of the entire suite
Upload a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you are in Sileby, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
Sileby: your questions answered
Can you quote from pictures?
Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it normally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
Can you turn my avocado bath white?
Yes. We resurface it in white with it left in place.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Can you do the toilet too?
Ask us. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we’ll advise honestly before quoting.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

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

What your quote should include

- If travel is included in the price
Repairing versus replacing in Sileby
Replacing a coloured suite means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white turns it white with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.
