About our coloured bath resurfacing in Ashton
We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. We regularly repair avocado, pampas and pink baths, whole bathroom suites and coloured basins, and the jobs we see most are faded or patchy colour and selling or letting a home with an old suite.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Ashton. What changes the price is:
- How much damage there is
- How hard the colour is to match
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Send pictures for a quote
Phone pictures are fine. Just make sure we can see:
- A wider photo showing the entire suite
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Something in shot to show the size
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a coloured suite involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white changes the colour with everything left in place. Prices start from £350. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
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.
