About our coloured bath resurfacing in Cheetham Hill
Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. A full suite is generally done in one to two days.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are covered after the visit. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- Faded or patchy colour

Cheetham Hill questions
Can you do the toilet too?
Ask us. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we’ll advise honestly before quoting.
Which areas do you work in?
We cover the whole UK, including Cheetham Hill and the rest of Greater Manchester. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll offer you dates.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
What do you need from me?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a coloured suite involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing turns it white without taking anything out. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. 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.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Cheetham Hill
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Cheetham Hill use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.
Can I fix it myself?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
