Coloured bath resurfacing in West Lydford without replacing anything
Most suites take one or two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. If you’re dealing with a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and faded or patchy colour, we can generally put it right, on avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured basins and whole bathroom suites alike.
Somewhere as small as West Lydford, you will find cottages, farmhouses and converted buildings. Some have heavy cast iron baths or tight bathrooms, and getting a bath out along a lane or up narrow stairs is hard work. Repairing in place avoids that.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in West Lydford and across Somerset. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. Every quote is fixed, with no obligation. What we take into account:
- How many areas need work
- How hard the colour is to match
- What kind of damage it is
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.
How to get a fixed quote
Phone photos are fine. Make sure they show:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
To get a price, send two or three photos through our quote form or call us. We’ll say straight away whether it can be repaired.
Signs you need coloured bath resurfacing in West Lydford
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and many are still sound. It’s normally the colour that dates them, not the condition.
You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- Faded or patchy colour
Rented homes near Castle Cary station (about 4.5 miles east) change hands often, and repairing coloured suites between tenants is quicker than replacing them.
What to look for in a quote
- Whether the price covers travel
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- Who turns up on the day
- How soon you can use it again
Should you replace it?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing changes the colour with everything left in place. For a rural home like those around West Lydford, a replacement means trades travelling out and waste being taken away, while coloured bath resurfacing is one trip.
Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.
What you get with us
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited
- Colour mixed on the day to match

Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
