Coloured Bath Resurfacing in Guide
We travel to Guide for resurfacing coloured baths, basins and trays in white. Everything is done in place, and the work is guaranteed.
- Resurfacing from £350
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
What we can’t put right
We will not take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t 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 before booking.
What we work on
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Whole bathroom suites
- Coloured shower trays
- Coloured basins
Coloured bath resurfacing in Guide, done in place
Most suites take one or two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Common call-outs are for selling or letting a home with an old suite and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, across coloured basins, whole bathroom suites and coloured shower trays.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Guide: your questions answered
What about the toilet?
Talk to us first. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we will advise honestly before quoting.
Which areas do you work in?
The whole UK, including all of Blackburn with Darwen. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.
What does coloured bath resurfacing cost?
Resurfacing from £350. Every job gets a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Do you come to Guide?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Guide and the rest of Blackburn with Darwen. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Repairing versus replacing in Guide
Replacing a coloured suite involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white turns it white with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.
Why us?
- Colour-matched on site
- Same prices wherever you are
- We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
See our prices page and guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
