- Faded or patchy colour
What to look for in a quote

About our coloured bath resurfacing in Beardwood
A full suite is generally done in one to two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Typical jobs include a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and selling or letting a home with an old suite, on coloured shower trays, whole bathroom suites and avocado, pampas and pink baths.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Questions from Beardwood
Will there be a smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Blackburn with Darwen.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
What happens if you find more damage?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it normally saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you will get one combined price.
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.

When we’d advise against a repair
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’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)
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a coloured suite involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing turns it white with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.
