Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Waldley
A full suite is usually done in one to two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there is no plumbing or tiling. We work on coloured basins, avocado, pampas and pink baths and whole bathroom suites, and the jobs we see most are faded or patchy colour and selling or letting a home with an old suite.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Waldley and across Derbyshire. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Around Waldley
Locally, our jobs take us to homes close to Church of St Giles, Marston Montgomery Primary School and The Crown Inn and the streets around them.

Other landmarks nearby include Alton Castle (4.7 miles north-west) and Redfern's Cottage (3.1 miles south-west).
The process
On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take one to two days for a full suite. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- 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, usually until the next day.
How to prepare
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Let the surface dry out before the visit

Questions from Waldley
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you’ll get one combined price.
How do I book?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Which areas do you work in?
All of Derbyshire, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.
Honest limits
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not 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’ll say what we think before you book.
Materials we work on in Waldley
- Coloured shower trays
- Whole bathroom suites
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Coloured basins
Do you need coloured bath resurfacing in Waldley?
Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. It’s usually the colour that dates them, not the condition.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- Faded or patchy colour

DIY kit or professional repair?
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.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Waldley
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
How we price coloured bath resurfacing
Resurfacing from £350. We don’t charge extra for travel to Waldley. The price comes down to:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- What kind of damage it is
- How many items we do on one visit
- How many areas need work
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
How to get a fixed quote
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- The material, if you know it
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A photo taken from further back
If you are in Waldley and want a price, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white changes the colour without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
