Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Winterborne Zelston
Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. We are frequently asked to fix selling or letting a home with an old suite and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, across coloured shower trays, whole bathroom suites and coloured basins.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
When a repair isn’t the answer
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- 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)
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
Materials we work on in Winterborne Zelston

Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a coloured suite involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white turns it white without taking anything out. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Your questions about coloured bath resurfacing in Winterborne Zelston
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. If pictures don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.
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.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
Which areas do you work in?
We cover the whole UK, including Winterborne Zelston and the rest of Dorset. Send your postcode with your photos and we will offer you dates.
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Do you charge for travel?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The material
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The colour and finish to match
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Quotes from your pictures
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Where you are, by postcode
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Work for landlords and builders
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Winterborne Zelston use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.
What we do, step by step
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes one to two days for a full suite, and we leave the room as we found it.
- The room is protected and ventilated.
- We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
- We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
- Each item is left to cure, normally ready the day after.
How to prepare
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Clear the area around the damage
