Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Chorley
A full suite is typically done in one to two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. Whether it’s a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and selling or letting a home with an old suite, we can help, whatever the material.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. 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.

Work for landlords and builders
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Chorley as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we will handle the rest.
When we would advise against a repair
To be straight with you, some problems need a different 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)
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.
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 new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing changes the colour without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We look at:
- How hard the colour is to match
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The material and finish
- The type of damage
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Getting a price from pictures
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Details of any past repairs
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
Common questions in Chorley
What areas do you cover?
Across the UK, so Chorley is covered. Prices don’t change with location.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.
Do you work in Chorley?
We do. We send a technician to Chorley for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
What does coloured bath resurfacing cost?
Resurfacing from £350. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

- We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
- The surface is prepared and primed.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- We leave everything to cure, usually until the day after.
