Coloured bath resurfacing in Blyth Bridge without replacing anything
Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. Whether it’s selling or letting a home with an old suite and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, we can typically put it right, on whole bathroom suites, avocado, pampas and pink baths and coloured shower trays alike.
All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in the Scottish Borders. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

When a repair is not the answer
In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’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)
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
What we work on
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Whole bathroom suites
- Coloured basins
- Coloured shower trays
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a coloured suite involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing turns it white with everything left in place. Prices start from £350. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Blyth Bridge. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Blyth Bridge: your questions answered
Do you hold any accreditations?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
What do you need from me?
Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.
What about the toilet?
Ask us. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we’ll tell you what will last.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Which areas do you work in?
We work UK-wide, and that includes Blyth Bridge. Our prices are the same everywhere.
How quickly can you book me in?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Is there a guarantee?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
How it works
We work cleanly and quietly. Protection goes down first, then the work takes one to two days for a full suite. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- The room is protected and ventilated.
- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
- Once cured, normally by the day after, the suite is ready.
Before we arrive
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Open a window if you can
- Clear the area around the damage

How we price coloured bath resurfacing
Resurfacing from £350. We do not charge extra for travel to Blyth Bridge. The price comes down to:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How many items we do on one visit
- The material
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Send photos for a quote
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:
- Any details about the material
- Natural light rather than flash
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Something in shot to show the size
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
