DIY repairs versus a professional job
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Coloured bath resurfacing in Warmwell without replacing anything
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. We work on coloured basins, coloured shower trays and whole bathroom suites, and the jobs we see most are selling or letting a home with an old suite and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white.
Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Dorset. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Should you replace it?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white turns it white without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Warmwell use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
When a repair is not the answer
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can 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

How we price coloured bath resurfacing
Resurfacing from £350. We do not charge extra for travel to Warmwell. The price comes down to:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How many items we do on one visit
- What the surface is made of
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Send photos for a quote
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Warmwell: your questions answered
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Can pets and children be at home?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Can a coloured bath be made white?
Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.
What happens if you find more damage?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
What we do, step by step
We turn up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take one to two days for a full suite, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- We leave everything to cure, generally until the day after.
How to prepare
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
