About our coloured bath resurfacing in Fishburn
We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. We regularly repair coloured basins, avocado, pampas and pink baths and whole bathroom suites, and the jobs we see most are selling or letting a home with an old suite and faded or patchy colour.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

FAQs for Fishburn
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Can you do the toilet too?
Talk to us first. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we will advise honestly before quoting.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we will quote them together.
Do you cover Fishburn?
We do. Repair technicians travel to Fishburn from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Can pets and children be at home?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
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 generally the cheaper route.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
When we’d advise against a repair
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:
- 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 pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Common problems we fix in Fishburn
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and many are still sound. The problem is normally the colour, not the bath.
Most people get in touch when they notice one of these:
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- Faded or patchy colour
Comparing quotes
- What protection goes down before work starts
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- When it can be used again
- How the colour is matched
Should you replace it?
Replacing a coloured suite involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white changes the colour without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Why us?
- Most jobs done in one visit
- Everything repaired in place
- We leave the room as we found it
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited

What affects the price in Fishburn
Resurfacing from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- What the surface is made of
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How much damage there is
We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Send photos for a quote
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Details of any past repairs
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Something in shot to show the size
We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.
What we do, step by step
Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a day or two, depending on how many items, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
- Each item is left to cure, normally ready the next day.
Preparing for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Clear the area around the damage
