Coloured suite to white in Burton, Northumberland
Resurfacing coloured baths, basins and trays in white at your home in Burton, with a one-year guarantee on every repair.
- Resurfacing from £350
- Faded or patchy colour
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
Coloured bath resurfacing in Burton, done in place
A full suite is generally done in one to two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. We regularly repair whole bathroom suites, coloured shower trays and avocado, pampas and pink baths, and the jobs we see most are a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we will come back. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Repairing versus replacing in Burton
Replacing a coloured suite involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white turns it white without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

What we are called out for in Burton
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and many are still sound. It’s usually the colour that dates them, not the condition.
You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:
- Faded or patchy colour
- A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
Before booking anyone
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- How your room will be protected
- What aftercare is recommended
- How the colour is matched
What we cannot put right
We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- 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 pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Burton questions
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
What do you need from me?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
How much does coloured bath resurfacing cost in Burton?
Prices start from £350. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
What happens if you find more damage?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Will there be a smell?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working that clears as it cures.

- Once cured, normally by the day after, the suite is ready.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. There is no charge for travel to Burton. The price depends on:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- What kind of damage it is
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How easy the damage is to reach
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Burton. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Quotes from your photos
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Something in shot to show the size
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Natural light rather than flash
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
Email us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your NE69 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
