Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Silkstone Common
We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, 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 typically put it right.
You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a coloured suite involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing changes the colour without taking anything out. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
What you get with us
- One price list for the entire UK
- One visit for most repairs
- Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited

Questions from Silkstone Common
Can you do the toilet too?
Ask us. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we will tell you what will last.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Do you work in Silkstone Common?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Silkstone Common. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and you will get one combined price.
Can you quote from photos?
Nearly always. If pictures don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
What we can’t put right
We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:
- 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 pictures and we will tell you honestly.
Materials we repair
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Whole bathroom suites
- Coloured shower trays
- Coloured basins
Landlords, agents and businesses in Silkstone Common
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
The process
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. Once we are there, the work takes one to two days for a full suite for most jobs. The room is left tidy.
- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
- We leave everything to cure, usually until the day after.
Before we arrive
- Ensure the area is dry
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
