Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Woodthorpe
We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. Common call-outs are for selling or letting a home with an old suite and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, on whole bathroom suites, avocado, pampas and pink baths and coloured shower trays.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we will come back. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Landlord and trade work in Woodthorpe
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Woodthorpe use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

When we would advise against a repair
In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- 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 pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.

DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.
Your questions about coloured bath resurfacing in Woodthorpe
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
What do you need from me?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Do the materials smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

How we price coloured bath resurfacing
Resurfacing from £350. There is no area surcharge for Woodthorpe. The price reflects:
- The colour and finish to match
- How much damage there is
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The material
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
How to get a fixed price
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A picture taken from further back
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Something in shot to show the size
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a coloured suite means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white changes the colour with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Why Woodthorpe customers choose us
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited
