How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Kirkburn
Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. A full suite is normally done in one to two days. We regularly repair coloured shower trays, coloured basins and whole bathroom suites, and people most often call us about a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and selling or letting a home with an old suite.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will sort it. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

When to call us in Kirkburn
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.
Common reasons people in Kirkburn contact us include:
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
- Faded or patchy colour
Questions to ask before you book
- Who turns up on the day
- How to look after the finish
- How the colour is matched
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
Should I try a DIY kit first?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- Doing more than one item at once
- How many areas need work
- Access to the area
- The material and finish
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed quote
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Any details about the material
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- One picture of the whole suite
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole suite, we can price the job the same day in most cases.
What a repair cannot fix
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- 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
- Whole bathroom suites
- Coloured shower trays
- Coloured basins
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means 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. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
