Coloured suite to white in Downham, Lancashire
Our technicians come to Downham for resurfacing coloured baths, basins and trays in white. Everything is done in place, with a one-year guarantee.
- Resurfacing from £350
- Faded or patchy colour
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
Should I try a DIY kit first?
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, a professional repair is worth it.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
Coloured bath resurfacing in Downham without replacing anything
We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. Common call-outs are for faded or patchy colour and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, in whole bathroom suites, coloured basins and coloured shower trays.
Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Downham questions
Can you turn my avocado bath white?
Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.
How soon can you come?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We come back with a fixed quote, plus dates. There is no obligation to book.
Can you do the toilet too?
Ask us. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we’ll advise honestly before quoting.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

How it works
Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. It normally takes one to two days for a full suite, and we will keep you posted as we go.
- 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.
- Once cured, normally by the day after, the suite is ready.
Before we arrive
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:
- What the surface is made of
- How hard the colour is to match
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Downham. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Quotes from your photos
Two or three clear photos are typically enough. Try to include:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Something in shot to show the size
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Natural light rather than flash
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the suite, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
When a repair isn’t the answer
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- 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)
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Coloured shower trays
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Whole bathroom suites
- Coloured basins
