About our coloured bath resurfacing in Longport
Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. If you’re dealing with selling or letting a home with an old suite and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, we can help, on avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured shower trays and coloured basins alike.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Longport and across Stoke-on-Trent. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

What else we do in Longport
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- What kind of damage it is
- Doing more than one item at once
- How many areas need work
- Access to the area
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Getting a price from photos
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:
- The material, if you know it
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Something in shot to show the size
- Where you are, by postcode
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
When we would advise against a repair
It helps to know what we cannot do too:
- 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’ll say what we think before booking.
Materials we work on in Longport
- Coloured shower trays
- Whole bathroom suites
- Coloured basins
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
Common questions in Longport
Can a coloured bath be made white?
Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.
Will the price change on the day?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Can you do the toilet too?
Ask us. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we’ll tell you what will last.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Which areas do you work in?
We work UK-wide, so Longport is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Signs you need coloured bath resurfacing in Longport
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. It’s normally the colour that dates them, not the condition.
You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- Faded or patchy colour
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- A suite that does not match a new bathroom

Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a coloured suite means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing changes the colour with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. 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 play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Why book with us
- Most jobs done in one visit
- One-year guarantee on every repair
- Fixed prices from your photos
- Everything repaired in place

Landlord and trade work in Longport
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
What happens on the day
We agree an arrival time beforehand. On site, it takes a day or two, depending on how many items. The room is left tidy.
- 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 the new white (or other colour) finish.
- Each item is left to cure, typically ready the day after.
How to prepare
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Have a window or extractor fan available

Advice
Should I try a DIY kit first?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
