Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Marsden
A full suite is normally done in one to two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. Common call-outs are for a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and selling or letting a home with an old suite, on coloured shower trays, coloured basins and whole bathroom suites.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

FAQs for Marsden
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Do you work in Marsden?
We do. We send a technician to Marsden for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
What happens next?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.
Can you quote from photos?
Normally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
What information do you need?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
How the visit works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Allow a day or two, depending on how many items from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to care for it.
- The room is protected and ventilated.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
- We leave everything to cure, generally until the day after.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Clear the area around the damage
- Have a window or extractor fan available
How to get a price
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

Should you replace it?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white changes the colour with everything left in place. Prices start from £350. Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

When to call us in Marsden
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. It’s typically the colour that dates them, not the condition.
The things customers usually mention when they call include:
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- Faded or patchy colour

What coloured bath resurfacing costs
Resurfacing from £350. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- What kind of damage it is
- The material
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.
Send photos for a quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A wider photo showing the entire suite
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Any details about the material
We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.
What we can’t put right
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not 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.
What we work on
- Coloured shower trays
- Coloured basins
- Whole bathroom suites
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
