Coloured bath resurfacing in Cuerden, done in place
Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. A full suite is generally done in one to two days. Our repair technicians work on coloured basins, coloured shower trays and whole bathroom suites, and the jobs we see most are faded or patchy colour and selling or letting a home with an old suite.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Work for landlords and builders
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Common questions in Cuerden
Can pets and children be at home?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole suite and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
Can you do the toilet too?
Ask us. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we will advise honestly before quoting.
What affects the price in Cuerden
Resurfacing from £350. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Access to the area
- How much damage there is
- What kind of damage it is
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.
Quotes from your photos
You can normally get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A wider photo showing the entire suite
- The material, if you know it
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price without visiting.

What we’re called out for in Cuerden
Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. The problem is normally the colour, not the bath.
The most common problems we are called about are:
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- Faded or patchy colour
- A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
Questions to ask before booking
- Who will actually do the work
- What prep work is covered
- If travel is included in the price
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
Honest limits
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t 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 photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

How the visit works
You do not need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. It usually takes one to two days for a full suite, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- The room is protected and ventilated.
- We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
- The surface is prepared and primed.
- We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
- Once cured, normally by the next day, the suite is ready.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Make sure the area is dry
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
How to get a price
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

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 then the old filler has to be removed first.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
