Moorside questions
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
What do you need from me?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
What areas do you cover?
Everywhere in the UK, Moorside included. There is no extra charge for travel.
Can you turn my avocado bath white?
Yes. We resurface it in white with it left in place.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.
How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Moorside
Most suites take one or two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. If you are dealing with faded or patchy colour and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white, we can generally put it right.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
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.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
When to call us in Moorside
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. It’s generally the colour that dates them, not the condition.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- 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
Comparing quotes
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- How long it needs to cure
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
Repair or replace in Moorside?
Replacing a coloured suite involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white turns it white without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
What you get with us
- Colour-matched on site
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
- One price list for the entire UK
- Usually one visit, start to finish

What a repair cannot fix
Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- 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 photos and we’ll say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Whole bathroom suites
- Coloured shower trays
- Coloured basins

For landlords and businesses
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Moorside use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

What coloured bath resurfacing costs
Resurfacing from £350. There is no area surcharge for Moorside. What changes the price is:
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The material and finish
- How many items we do on one visit
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

- The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
- We leave everything to cure, usually until the following day.
How to prepare

- Clear the area around the damage
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
