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 with everything left in place. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Why book with us
- We come to you, anywhere in the UK
- A fixed quote before booking

- Same prices wherever you are

About our coloured bath resurfacing in Embleton
Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. If you are dealing with faded or patchy colour and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, we can normally put it right.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Embleton and across Northumberland. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

What happens on the day
There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to a day or two, depending on how many items, including clearing up.
- The room is protected and ventilated.
- We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
- The surface is prepared and primed.
- We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
- Once cured, normally by the next day, the suite is ready.
Getting ready for the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
Ask for a price
To get a price, send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

What affects the price in Embleton
Prices start from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How easy the damage is to reach
We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Quotes from your photos
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A wider photo showing the entire suite
- Any details about the material
Upload a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, with your NE66 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
When a repair isn’t the answer
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- 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 pictures and we’ll say what we think.

Embleton questions
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Normally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.
Can a coloured bath be made white?
Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.
How quickly can you book me in?
We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
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.
