Coloured Bath Resurfacing for Easington Lane homes
Fixed-price coloured bath resurfacing in Easington Lane and the surrounding area, normally in one visit.
- Resurfacing from £350
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- Faded or patchy colour
Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Easington Lane
A full suite is usually done in one to two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. Our repair technicians work on coloured shower trays, coloured basins and avocado, pampas and pink baths, and people most frequently call us about selling or letting a home with an old suite and faded or patchy colour.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

When a repair isn’t the answer
We won’t take on work that won’t last, so these are 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)
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Coloured basins
- Whole bathroom suites
- Coloured shower trays
DIY repairs versus a professional job
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
What we do, step by step
When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job normally takes one to two days for a full suite. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
- We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
- We leave everything to cure, typically until the following day.
Before we arrive
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Advice
Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. We do not charge extra for travel to Easington Lane. The price comes down to:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The colour and finish to match
A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Send photos for a quote
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- The material, if you know it
- Details of any past repairs
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole suite, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.

Easington Lane: your questions answered
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire suite and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
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.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Is there any odour?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.

Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing turns it white without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
