DIY repairs versus a professional job
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
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 the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Longtown
Most suites take one or two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. Typical jobs include selling or letting a home with an old suite and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, on coloured shower trays, avocado, pampas and pink baths and coloured basins.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

What information do you need?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
What we do, step by step
Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a day or two, depending on how many items, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- 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
- Open a window if you can
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

When a repair isn’t the answer
We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- 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 basins
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Coloured shower trays
- Whole bathroom suites
How we price coloured bath resurfacing
Resurfacing from £350. There’s no charge for travel to Longtown. The price comes down to:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- What kind of damage it is
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
How to get a fixed price
Phone pictures are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Ensure they show:
- A photo taken from further back
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Where you are, by postcode
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Most customers in Longtown get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
