About our coloured bath resurfacing in Eccles on Sea
Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. A full suite is typically done in one to two days. Our repair technicians work on coloured basins, coloured shower trays and whole bathroom suites, and common reasons people contact us are a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and selling or letting a home with an old suite.
Somewhere as small as Eccles on Sea, you will find cottages, farmhouses and converted buildings. Many have heavy cast iron baths or baths in awkward spots, and getting a bath out along a lane or up narrow stairs is hard work. Repairing in place avoids that.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

How it works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Plan for one to two days for a full suite from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to look after it. In a village or hamlet like Eccles on Sea, access can be the only tricky part. Once on site, the job is the same as anywhere.
- 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 the new white (or other colour) finish.
- We leave everything to cure, generally until the following day.
How to prepare
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Clear the area around the damage
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
Ask for a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the suite, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
Advice
Should I try a DIY kit first?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
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 normally cheaper.
What coloured bath resurfacing costs
Resurfacing from £350. Quotes cost nothing and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Doing more than one item at once
- How many areas need work
- Unusual colours or finishes
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.
Getting a price from pictures
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- Details of any past repairs
- A picture taken from further back
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Natural light rather than flash
We price from pictures so you do not 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.
For landlords and businesses
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
What we can’t put right
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can 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)
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Materials we work on in Eccles on Sea
- Whole bathroom suites
- Coloured basins
- Coloured shower trays
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
Should you replace it?
Replacing a coloured suite involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white turns it white without taking anything out. For a rural home like those around Eccles on Sea, a replacement means trades travelling out and waste being taken away, while a repair is a single visit.
Prices start from £350. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Why book with us
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
- Everything repaired in place
- Same prices wherever you are

Do you need coloured bath resurfacing in Eccles on Sea?
Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and many are still sound. The problem is typically the colour, not the bath.

Your questions about coloured bath resurfacing in Eccles on Sea
Do you cover villages like Eccles on Sea?
Yes. We cover villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and parking.
My house in Eccles on Sea is a period property. Is the original worth keeping?
In most cases: original pieces are frequently better made and harder to replace. We’ll give you an honest view from pictures.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
What do you need from me?
Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.
Can you quote from photos?
Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
