Etherley Grange: your questions answered
Can you do the toilet too?
Talk to us first. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we’ll tell you what will last.
Can a coloured bath be made white?
Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We come back with a fixed quote, plus dates. You’re under no obligation.
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Do you work in Etherley Grange?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Etherley Grange. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. If pictures don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Etherley Grange
Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. We regularly repair whole bathroom suites, coloured shower trays and avocado, pampas and pink baths, and the jobs we see most are selling or letting a home with an old suite and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

When a repair is not the answer
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not 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)
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

Can I fix it myself?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
