Coloured bath resurfacing in Ulwell, done in place
We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. Typical jobs include selling or letting a home with an old suite and faded or patchy colour, in whole bathroom suites, avocado, pampas and pink baths and coloured shower trays.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Ulwell and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

What affects the price in Ulwell
Resurfacing from £350. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We look at:
- The material and finish
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Doing more than one item at once
- How many areas need work
Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Send pictures for a quote
When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Where you are, by postcode
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
Most clients in Ulwell get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Work for landlords and builders
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
What we do, step by step
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which generally takes one to two days for a full suite. If anything looks different from your pictures, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.
- The room is protected and ventilated.
- We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
- We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
- Once cured, normally by the next day, the suite is ready.
Before we arrive
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
Ask for a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire suite, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Ulwell: your questions answered
Can you quote from pictures?
Normally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Do you come to Ulwell?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Ulwell. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send pictures.
Will there be a smell?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Can you turn my avocado bath white?
Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.
Can you do the toilet too?
Ask us. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we’ll advise honestly before quoting.
Can I fix it myself?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
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, and the work is guaranteed.
