Coloured bath resurfacing in Tipner, done in place
We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there is no plumbing or tiling. A full suite is usually done in one to two days. Typical jobs include a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, on coloured shower trays, avocado, pampas and pink baths and coloured basins.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing changes the colour with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

FAQs for Tipner
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. These are the things that affect it:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- What kind of damage it is
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How hard the colour is to match
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed price
Two or three clear photos are typically enough. Try to include:
- A wider photo showing the entire suite
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Something in shot to show the size
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Tipner
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Tipner as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
How the visit works
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take one to two days for a full suite, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- 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.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Clear the area around the damage

Related advice
Can I fix it myself?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
