Coloured bath resurfacing in Barrow Island, done in place
Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. Our repair technicians work on whole bathroom suites, coloured shower trays and coloured basins, and common reasons people contact us are a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Barrow Island questions
Do you cover Barrow Island?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.
Are there extra charges for Barrow Island?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
What happens after I send photos?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

Is there a guarantee?

Can I add another job to the visit?

Prices start from £350. Every job gets a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item with your LA14 postcode.

- 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.
- Each item is left to cure, typically ready the day after.

Advice
DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.
