Repair or replace in Hulverstone?

About our coloured bath resurfacing in Hulverstone
We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. We regularly repair whole bathroom suites, avocado, pampas and pink baths and coloured shower trays, and people most frequently call us about a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and faded or patchy colour.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll sort it. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Signs you need coloured bath resurfacing in Hulverstone
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and many are still sound. The problem is generally the colour, not the bath.
People typically call us when they notice something like this:
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- Faded or patchy colour
- A suite that does not match a new bathroom
What your quote should include
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
- What prep work is covered
- If travel is included in the price
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
What affects the price in Hulverstone
Prices start from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:
- Doing more than one item at once
- How hard the colour is to match
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
How to get a fixed quote
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Natural light rather than flash
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A photo taken from further back
Email us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your PO30 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.

Hulverstone: your questions answered
What do you need from me?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
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.
Do you come to Hulverstone?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Hulverstone. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Do you charge for travel?
We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.
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.
Do the materials smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work.
Can I fix it myself?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
How it works
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, 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 we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- The surface is prepared and primed.
- The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
- Once cured, normally by the following day, the suite is ready.
Getting ready for the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
