About our coloured bath resurfacing in South Bowood
Most suites take one or two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. We regularly repair coloured basins, coloured shower trays and whole bathroom suites, and common reasons people get in touch are a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and faded or patchy colour.
Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Dorset. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

South Bowood: your questions answered
Do you come to South Bowood?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to South Bowood for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Can a coloured bath be made white?
Yes. We resurface it in white with it left in place.
Can you do the toilet too?
Talk to us first. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we will tell you what will last.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.
What does coloured bath resurfacing cost?
Resurfacing from £350. Every job gets a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item and your postcode.

Advice
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. There is no area surcharge for South Bowood. What changes the price is:
- The material and finish
- How much damage there is
- What kind of damage it is
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
How to get a fixed price
When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- One picture of the entire suite
- Something in shot to show the size
We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Repairing versus replacing in South Bowood
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white changes the colour with everything left in place. Prices start from £350. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for South Bowood. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
What you get with us
- Colour-matched on site
- Same prices wherever you are
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- One visit for most repairs
