About our coloured bath resurfacing in Swingate
Most suites take one or two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Typical jobs include a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and selling or letting a home with an old suite, on coloured shower trays, coloured basins and whole bathroom suites.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Swingate and across Nottinghamshire. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

What a repair can’t fix
A repair is not always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:
- 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.
Materials we repair
- Whole bathroom suites
- Coloured basins
- Coloured shower trays
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
What happens on the day
Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Allow one to two days for a full suite. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to care for it.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- Each item is left to cure, generally ready the next day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Point us to the nearest place to park
Ask for a price
Email us a photo of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Swingate, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
Related advice
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a coloured suite involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing turns it white without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
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, and the work is guaranteed.

Swingate questions
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
When can you do it?
We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Can a coloured bath be made white?
Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.
What do you need from me?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.
Is there a call-out fee?
We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.
What happens after I send photos?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.
Landlord and trade work in Swingate
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Nottinghamshire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- How many items we do on one visit
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Access to the area
- How hard the colour is to match
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Send photos for a quote
You can normally get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Where you are, by postcode
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Do you need coloured bath resurfacing in Swingate?
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and many are still sound. The problem is usually the colour, not the bath.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- A suite that does not match a new bathroom
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- Faded or patchy colour
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
