Coloured bath resurfacing in South Carlton, done in place
Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days.

South Carlton: your questions answered
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
What areas do you cover?
The entire UK, including all of Lincolnshire. Just include your postcode and we’ll offer you dates.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
What happens after I send photos?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.
What happens if you find more damage?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Is there any odour?
Expect a mild smell while we are working, which fades afterwards.

- The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
- We leave everything to cure, generally until the next day.

- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
What we cannot put right
We will not take on work that won’t 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 photos and we will tell you honestly.
Materials we repair
- Coloured basins
- Whole bathroom suites
- Coloured shower trays
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
