Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Heaton Chapel
A full suite is usually done in one to two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. If you’re dealing with a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and faded or patchy colour, we can help, whatever the material.

What affects the price in Heaton Chapel
Resurfacing from £350. There’s no charge for travel to Heaton Chapel. The price depends on:
- The material
- How many items we do on one visit
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The colour and finish to match
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Getting a price from photos
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A photo taken from further back
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
If you’re in Heaton Chapel and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, 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.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Questions from Heaton Chapel
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.
Can you turn my avocado bath white?
Yes. We resurface it in white with it left in place.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.
Work for landlords and builders
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Heaton Chapel use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
What a repair cannot fix
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- 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 pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.

How the visit works
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job usually takes one to two days for a full suite. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
- Each item is left to cure, typically ready the next day.
Preparing for the visit
