DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Claughton
Most suites take one or two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. We work on avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured basins and whole bathroom suites, and the jobs we see most are selling or letting a home with an old suite and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Claughton and across Lancashire. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

What affects the price in Claughton
Prices start from £350. We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- What kind of damage it is
- How much damage there is
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The material and finish
Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Quotes from your photos
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- One picture of the whole suite
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire suite, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
Landlord and trade work in Claughton
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
Repair or replace in Claughton?
Replacing a coloured suite involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing turns it white with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Your questions about coloured bath resurfacing in Claughton
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
What happens if you find more damage?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Will there be a smell?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working, which fades afterwards.
What do you need from me?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.
Is there a call-out fee?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Can you price it without visiting?
Generally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
