Coloured Bath Resurfacing for Great Burdon homes
Resurfacing coloured baths, basins and trays in white at your home in Great Burdon, with a one-year guarantee on every repair.
- Resurfacing from £350
- Faded or patchy colour
- A suite that does not match a new bathroom
For landlords and businesses
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Coloured bath resurfacing in Great Burdon without replacing anything
We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. If you’re dealing with a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, we can normally put it right, on coloured shower trays, whole bathroom suites and coloured basins alike.
Every job is backed for twelve months in Great Burdon and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

What coloured bath resurfacing costs
Resurfacing from £350. You will know the full cost before you book. We look at:
- What kind of damage it is
- The colour and finish to match
- The size and number of damaged areas
- What the surface is made of
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Great Burdon. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Getting a price from pictures
You can typically get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Any details about the material
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole suite, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white turns it white without taking anything out. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Why us?
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- Most jobs done in one visit
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- No extra charge for your area

FAQs for Great Burdon
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Darlington.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
What areas do you cover?
Everywhere in the UK, Great Burdon included. There is no extra charge for travel.
DIY kit or professional repair?
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 the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
What we do, step by step
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 one to two days for a full suite.
- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- Each item is left to cure, generally ready the following day.
Before we arrive
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Have a window or extractor fan available
How to get a price
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
