Landlords, agents and businesses in Walton
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Derbyshire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
About our coloured bath resurfacing in Walton
Most suites take one or two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. If you are dealing with a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and faded or patchy colour, we can generally put it right, on coloured basins, coloured shower trays and whole bathroom suites alike.
All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Derbyshire. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing changes the colour with everything left in place. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.

What we cannot put right

How we price coloured bath resurfacing
Resurfacing from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Walton. The price reflects:
- What the surface is made of
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Doing more than one item at once
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 quote
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- What it’s made of, if you know
Most customers in Walton get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

- The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
- We leave everything to cure, usually until the next day.

Related advice
DIY kit or professional repair?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
