Coloured suite to white in Woodlands, Dorset
Resurfacing coloured baths, basins and trays in white at your home in Woodlands, with a one-year guarantee on every repair.
- Resurfacing from £350
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white

Coloured bath resurfacing in Woodlands without replacing anything
A full suite is normally done in one to two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. Our technicians work on whole bathroom suites, avocado, pampas and pink baths and coloured shower trays, and people most frequently call us about selling or letting a home with an old suite and faded or patchy colour.
You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
What a repair cannot fix
It helps to know what we cannot 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)
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

What else we do in Woodlands
How we price coloured bath resurfacing
Prices start from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- Access to the area
- The material and finish
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
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 make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Send photos for a quote
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Any details about the material
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the suite, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.
Woodlands questions
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
What areas do you cover?
Everywhere in the UK, Woodlands included. Travel is included in the price.
How quickly can you book me in?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Do you charge for travel?
There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Will there be a smell?
There can be some smell while we work. It clears as the materials cure.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a coloured suite involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white changes the colour without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.

How the visit works

- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- The surface is prepared and primed.
- The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
- We leave everything to cure, generally until the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Let us know about parking or access
How to get a price
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.
Advice
Work for landlords and builders
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Woodlands as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
