Coloured Bath Resurfacing for Cummersdale homes
Coloured bath resurfacing in and around Cummersdale: a fixed quote from photos, a tidy visit and a one-year guarantee.
- Resurfacing from £350

Coloured bath resurfacing in Cummersdale without replacing anything
Most suites take one or two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Typical jobs include a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and selling or letting a home with an old suite, on coloured shower trays, coloured basins and whole bathroom suites.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll sort it. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Cummersdale
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:
- How much damage there is
- The material
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether we combine several jobs
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.
Quotes from your pictures
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:
- A photo taken from further back
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- What it’s made of, if you know
We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
When we would advise against a repair
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 photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Materials we repair
- Coloured basins
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Coloured shower trays
- Whole bathroom suites
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a coloured suite means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing changes the colour with everything left in place. Prices start from £350. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
What you get with us
- A fixed quote before booking
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
- We leave the room as we found it
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface

How the visit works
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes one to two days for a full suite. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
- We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
- We leave everything to cure, typically until the next day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
Getting a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the suite, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Common questions in Cummersdale
Can you turn my avocado bath white?
Yes. We resurface it in white with it left in place.
What do you need from me?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Will the price change on the day?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
How quickly can you book me in?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
