Our repair technicians come to Staveley for resurfacing coloured baths, basins and trays in white. Nothing is taken out, and the work is guaranteed.

How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Staveley
Most suites take one or two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. We regularly repair avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured shower trays and coloured basins, and people most frequently call us about selling or letting a home with an old suite and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

What a repair can’t fix
A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:
- 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’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Can I fix it myself?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. We price every job individually, from your photos. The main factors are:
- How much damage there is
- What kind of damage it is
- Doing more than one item at once
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Staveley. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Getting a price from photos
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Where you are, by postcode
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- The material, if you know it
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole suite, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.
The process
Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes one to two days for a full suite, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- The room is protected and ventilated.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- 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, generally until the next day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know about parking or access
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
Ask for a price
To get a price, send two or three photos using our quote form or ring us. We will say immediately whether it can be repaired.

Your questions about coloured bath resurfacing in Staveley
Will there be a smell?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
What about the toilet?
Ask us. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we will advise honestly before quoting.
Do you come to Staveley?
We do. We send a technician to Staveley for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Can you quote from pictures?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
When can you do it?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Repair or replace in Staveley?
Replacing a coloured suite involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing turns it white with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. 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.
What you get with us
- Colour-matched on site
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
- Free fixed quotes from pictures
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
