Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Cumbria and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Kells
Most suites take one or two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. If you’re dealing with selling or letting a home with an old suite and faded or patchy colour, we can help, on whole bathroom suites, avocado, pampas and pink baths and coloured basins alike.
All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Cumbria. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Kells questions
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Can you quote from pictures?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
What does coloured bath resurfacing cost?
Resurfacing from £350. Every job gets a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item and your postcode.
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
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, and the work is guaranteed.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
What affects the price in Kells
Resurfacing from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How much damage there is
- The material
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Getting a price from photos
You can take the pictures on your phone. Make sure they show:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A photo taken from further back
- Details of any past repairs
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job without visiting.
What happens on the day
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the work takes one to two days for a full suite. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
- Once cured, normally by the following day, the suite is ready.
How to prepare
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
Getting a price
Upload photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you are in Kells, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
Advice
Repair or replace in Kells?
Replacing a coloured suite involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white turns it white without taking anything out. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.
Why us?
- Most jobs done in one visit
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
- Fixed prices from your pictures
See our pricing and resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.
Do you need coloured bath resurfacing in Kells?
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and many are still sound. The problem is usually the colour, not the bath.
Common reasons people in Kells contact us are:
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
- Faded or patchy colour
Comparing quotes
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
When we would advise against a repair
In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not 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)
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Coloured shower trays
- Whole bathroom suites
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Coloured basins
