Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
Coloured bath resurfacing in Glassonby, done in place
We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. A full suite is normally done in one to two days. We’re often asked to fix a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and faded or patchy colour, across coloured basins, coloured shower trays and whole bathroom suites.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Do you need coloured bath resurfacing in Glassonby?
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and many are still sound. The problem is usually the colour, not the bath.
Contact us if you’ve noticed any of these:
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- A suite that does not match a new bathroom
- Faded or patchy colour
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite

Should you replace it?
Replacing a coloured suite involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white changes the colour with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Honest limits
We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- 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)
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

What coloured bath resurfacing costs
Prices start from £350. We don’t charge extra for travel to Glassonby. The price depends on:
- How much damage there is
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether we combine several jobs
- What the surface is made of
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Glassonby. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Getting a price from photos
When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A photo taken from further back
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- The material, if you know it
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

Your questions about coloured bath resurfacing in Glassonby
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Which areas do you work in?
We work UK-wide. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Cumbria.
How do I book?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
How it works
Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a day or two, depending on how many items, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- The room is protected and ventilated.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- Once cured, normally by the following day, the suite is ready.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Have a window or extractor fan available
