Coloured Bath Resurfacing for Blanchland homes
We travel to Blanchland for resurfacing coloured baths, basins and trays in white. Nothing is taken out, and the work is guaranteed.
- Resurfacing from £350
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Blanchland
We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. A full suite is usually done in one to 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 selling or letting a home with an old suite.
You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
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.
Common problems we fix in Blanchland
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. The problem is normally the colour, not the bath.
Send us a photo if you notice any of these:
- A suite that doesn’t 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
What your quote should include
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- What prep work is covered
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- How the colour is matched
Repairing versus replacing in Blanchland
Replacing a coloured suite means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing turns it white with everything left in place. Prices start from £350. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Why Blanchland clients choose us
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
- We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- No extra charge for your area
- Colour mixed on the day to match
See our pricing and guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.
Work for landlords and builders
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
When we’d advise against a repair
Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. 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)
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
Materials we work on in Blanchland

What coloured bath resurfacing costs
Resurfacing from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Blanchland. What changes the price is:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How many areas need work
- Unusual colours or finishes
