About our coloured bath resurfacing in Cawthorne
Most suites take one or two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. Our technicians work on coloured basins, avocado, pampas and pink baths and whole bathroom suites, 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.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Can I fix it myself?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
A DIY attempt is not 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 photos.
What a repair can’t fix
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- 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.
Surfaces we repair
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Coloured basins
- Coloured shower trays
- Whole bathroom suites
Should you replace it?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white turns it white with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

What coloured bath resurfacing costs
Prices start from £350. We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The type of damage
- How hard the colour is to match
- Doing more than one item at once
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Getting a price from pictures
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Natural light rather than flash
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire suite, we can price the job.

Landlord and trade work in Cawthorne
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
