About our coloured bath resurfacing in The Calders
Most suites take one or two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Typical jobs include faded or patchy colour and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, in coloured basins, whole bathroom suites and coloured shower trays.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll sort it. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

How the visit works
There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take one to two days for a full suite, tidy-up included.
- 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 on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
- Once cured, normally by the day after, the suite is ready.
Preparing for the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
How to get a price
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is 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. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:
- How many areas need work
- Access to the area
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether we combine several jobs
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Getting a price from photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- One picture of the entire suite
- Details of any past repairs
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
