How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Halton-Lea-Gate

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. There is no charge for travel to Halton-Lea-Gate. The price comes down to:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How many items we do on one visit
- The material
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.
Getting a price from photos
Phone photos are fine, there is no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- The material, if you know it
- Something in shot to show the size
If you are in Halton-Lea-Gate and want a price, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
Your questions about coloured bath resurfacing in Halton-Lea-Gate
How quickly can you book me in?
We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
What happens if you find more damage?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
What information do you need?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Can you quote from pictures?
Normally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
Can you turn my avocado bath white?
Yes. We resurface it in white with it left in place.
For landlords and businesses
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Signs you need coloured bath resurfacing in Halton-Lea-Gate
Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and many are still sound. The problem is usually the colour, not the bath.
Send us a picture if you notice any of these:
- A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
- Faded or patchy colour
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white

Should you replace it?
Replacing a coloured suite involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white turns it white with everything left in place. Prices start from £350. We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

- The room is protected and ventilated.
- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
- We leave everything to cure, usually until the next day.
How to prepare

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
