Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Fir Tree
Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. A full suite is usually done in one to two days. If you are dealing with a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, we can help.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Questions from Fir Tree
Can you do the toilet too?
Talk to us first. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we will tell you what will last.
Do you come to Fir Tree?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Fir Tree and the rest of County Durham. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across County Durham.
Do you cover the whole of County Durham?
Across the UK, so Fir Tree is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Can you price it without visiting?
Normally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
What happens after I send photos?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote with dates.
Will there be a smell?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.
How we price coloured bath resurfacing
Prices start from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How much damage there is
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Fir Tree. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Getting a price from photos
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A wider photo showing the entire suite
- What it’s made of, if you know
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
How it works
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes one to two days for a full suite. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
- We leave everything to cure, normally until the next day.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know about parking or access
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
Get a quote
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.
Related advice
Should I try a DIY kit first?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
Work for landlords and builders
Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Should you replace it?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing changes the colour with everything left in place. Prices start from £350. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.
