Coloured bath resurfacing in Naughton without replacing anything
We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there is no plumbing or tiling. A full suite is generally done in one to two days. We work on coloured shower trays, whole bathroom suites and avocado, pampas and pink baths, and people most often call us about a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there is 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.

When to call us in Naughton
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.

- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- Faded or patchy colour

What affects the price in Naughton
Resurfacing from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Naughton. What changes the price is:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How much damage there is
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Naughton. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Getting a price from pictures
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- What it’s made of, if you know
There’s 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’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
Common questions in Naughton
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
How do I get a price for coloured bath resurfacing in Naughton?
Prices start from £350. We give a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
How soon can you come?
We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
What happens after I send pictures?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.
When a repair is not the answer
In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- 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 you book.
What we work on
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Coloured basins
- Coloured shower trays
- Whole bathroom suites
Can I fix it myself?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
What happens on the day
We agree an arrival time beforehand. On site, it takes a day or two, depending on how many items in most cases. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- 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.
- Once cured, normally by the next day, the suite is ready.
Before we arrive
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Let us know about parking or access
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
Ask for a price
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.
Advice
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a coloured suite means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white turns it white with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.
