How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Hattersley
Most suites take one or two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. Typical jobs include selling or letting a home with an old suite and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, on avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured basins and whole bathroom suites.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing changes the colour without taking anything out. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

We cover the whole UK, including Hattersley and the rest of Tameside. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
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.

How it works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Plan for one to two days for a full suite. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and how to care for it.
- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
- We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
- We leave everything to cure, usually until the next day.
How to prepare
- Let us know about parking or access
- Make sure the area is dry
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
How to get a price
To get a price, send a couple of pictures using our quote form or call us. We’ll say immediately whether it can be repaired.
