Coloured bath resurfacing in Brotton without replacing anything
We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there’s 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 help.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Work for landlords and builders
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Redcar and Cleveland and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:
- The material
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How hard the colour is to match
- The type of damage
We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Brotton. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Getting a price from pictures
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Details of any past repairs
- The material, if you know it
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
When to call us in Brotton
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. It’s usually the colour that dates them, not the condition.
Common reasons people in Brotton contact us are:
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- A suite that does not match a new bathroom
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- Faded or patchy colour
Comparing quotes
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- When it can be used again
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
When we would advise against a repair
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- 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 photos and we’ll say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Whole bathroom suites
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Coloured shower trays

Related advice
Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white turns it white without taking anything out. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Common questions in Brotton
Do you charge for travel?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Can you price it without visiting?
Usually, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
What does coloured bath resurfacing cost?
Resurfacing from £350. We give a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item with your TS12 postcode.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
What do you need from me?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Can tenants book a repair?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
