Coloured bath resurfacing across Ards: what to expect
We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. We work on coloured basins, whole bathroom suites and coloured shower trays, and people most frequently call us about selling or letting a home with an old suite and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom.
From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes one to two days for a full suite, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- The room is protected and ventilated.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- The surface is prepared and primed.
- The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
- We leave everything to cure, normally until the following day.

Local landmarks in Newtownards
We visit homes around Nendrum College. Further afield, we also cover the area around Ards Community Hospital (2.1 miles north). For a walk, there is WWT Castle Espie Wetland Centre and Scrabo Hill.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Ards
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Ards and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
How the damage happens
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. The problem is usually the colour, not the bath.
The things clients generally mention when they call include:
- A suite that does not match a new bathroom
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- Faded or patchy colour
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
When a repair is not the answer
A repair is not always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:
- 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)
DIY kit or professional repair?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
Repair or replace?
Replacing a coloured suite means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white changes the colour without taking anything out.
Questions to ask before you book
- How soon you can use it again
- Who turns up on the day
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
Questions from Ards
Do you charge for travel?
There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Can you quote from photos?
Normally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Normally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.
Will there be a smell?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working that clears as it cures.
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Can a coloured bath be made white?
Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
