Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Dunford Bridge
Most suites take one or two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. We’re often asked to fix faded or patchy colour and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, in avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured basins and coloured shower trays.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll come back. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Work for landlords and builders
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Dunford Bridge as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
What we are called out for in Dunford Bridge
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. It’s typically the colour that dates them, not the condition.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- Faded or patchy colour
- A suite that does not match a new bathroom
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
What to look for in a quote
- When it can be used again
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
- How the room is protected while they work
Should you replace it?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing changes the colour with everything left in place. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

What affects the price in Dunford Bridge
Resurfacing from £350. We give every job a fixed price from photos. This is what makes a difference:
- How many areas need work
- What the surface is made of
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Unusual colours or finishes
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Getting a price from photos
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Any details about the material
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Upload a photo of the damage and one of the whole item, with your S36 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
Common questions in Dunford Bridge
How do I get a price for coloured bath resurfacing in Dunford Bridge?
Resurfacing from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Are there extra charges for Dunford Bridge?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Can you quote from photos?
Generally, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Do you cover Dunford Bridge?
We do. We send a technician to Dunford Bridge for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.
