Coloured Bath Resurfacing for Low Etherley homes
Resurfacing coloured baths, basins and trays in white in Low Etherley, carried out at your home and guaranteed for a year.
- Resurfacing from £350
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- A suite that does not match a new bathroom
Coloured bath resurfacing in Low Etherley, done in place
A full suite is generally done in one to two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there is no 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.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

What a repair can’t fix
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- 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.

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 changes the colour without taking anything out. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Why us?
- We come to you, anywhere in the UK
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
- A fixed quote before booking

Low Etherley: your questions answered
Can you turn my avocado bath white?
Yes. We resurface it in white with it left in place.
What happens after I send photos?
You’ll get a fixed quote back. You’re under no obligation.
Can you do the toilet too?
Talk to us first. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we will tell you what will last.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
How much does coloured bath resurfacing cost in Low Etherley?

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

- The room is protected and ventilated.
- 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, generally ready the following day.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
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.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
What affects the price in Low Etherley
Prices start from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How many items we do on one visit
- What kind of damage it is
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
