What coloured bath resurfacing costs
Resurfacing from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Waingroves. The price reflects:
- The colour and finish to match
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- What the surface is made of
- What kind of damage it is
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Quotes from your photos
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:
- Something in shot to show the size
- One picture of the whole suite
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the suite, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Waingroves
Most suites take one or two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. We regularly repair coloured shower trays, coloured basins and whole bathroom suites, and common reasons people contact us are a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and selling or letting a home with an old suite.
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Derbyshire. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

- The room is protected and ventilated.
- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- The surface is prepared and primed.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- We leave everything to cure, generally until the next day.

- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Ensure the area is dry

Can I fix it myself?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. 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.

Your questions about coloured bath resurfacing in Waingroves
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Can you do the toilet too?
Ask us. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we will tell you what will last.
Which areas do you work in?
Across the UK, so Waingroves is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.
What happens next?
You will get a fixed quote back, generally with dates to choose from. There is no obligation to book.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

Common problems we fix in Waingroves
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and many are still sound. It’s usually the colour that dates them, not the condition.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- Faded or patchy colour
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- A suite that does not match a new bathroom

- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
- How changes to the job are handled
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a coloured suite means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white turns it white without taking anything out. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Waingroves. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Why book with us
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- Work done at your home or business
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited

What a repair can’t fix
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- 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)
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Coloured shower trays
- Coloured basins
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Whole bathroom suites
For landlords and businesses
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Derbyshire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
