Coloured bath resurfacing in Harbottle without replacing anything
We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. Typical jobs include a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and faded or patchy colour, on coloured shower trays, avocado, pampas and pink baths and whole bathroom suites.
All our work comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Northumberland. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

What coloured bath resurfacing costs
Prices start from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Harbottle. The price reflects:
- What the surface is made of
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The size and number of damaged areas
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Where you are, by postcode
- A photo taken from further back
You do not 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.
When to call us in Harbottle
Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and many are still sound. It’s usually the colour that dates them, not the condition.
The things customers usually mention when they call are:
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
- Faded or patchy colour
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
Before booking anyone
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- How your room will be protected
- Whether they match the colour on site

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

What happens on the day
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a day or two, depending on how many items. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.
- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- We leave everything to cure, usually until the following day.
Preparing for the visit

- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Let the surface dry out before the visit

Advice
DIY kit or professional repair?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Landlord and trade work in Harbottle
For anyone letting property in or around Harbottle, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we will come back with a combined price.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Harbottle as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.
FAQs for Harbottle
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Will the price change on the day?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
What does coloured bath resurfacing cost?
Resurfacing from £350. Every job gets a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Do the materials smell?
Expect a mild smell while we are working.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
Repair or replace in Harbottle?
Replacing a coloured suite means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white changes the colour without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
