Coloured bath resurfacing in Netherton, done in place
We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. Common call-outs are for faded or patchy colour and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, on coloured basins, whole bathroom suites and coloured shower trays.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Netherton and across Northumberland. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

For landlords and businesses
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Netherton as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
Repair or replace in Netherton?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white changes the colour without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Netherton: your questions answered
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and you will get one combined price.
Will there be a smell?
Expect a mild smell while we are working, which fades afterwards.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
What areas do you cover?
Everywhere in the UK, Netherton included. There is no extra charge for travel.
Will the price change on the day?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
What about the toilet?
Ask us. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we’ll tell you what will last.
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Can you price it without visiting?
Normally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Whole bathroom suites
- Coloured shower trays
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. This is what makes a difference:
- The material
- How hard the colour is to match
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Quotes from your pictures
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:
- One picture of the entire suite
- Any details about the material
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Where you are, by postcode
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole suite, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.
What we’re called out for in Netherton
Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. It’s normally the colour that dates them, not the condition.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- 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
Before booking anyone
- How to look after the finish
- When it can be used again
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
- If travel is included in the price
Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
What we do, step by step
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job usually takes a day or two, depending on how many items. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
- Each item is left to cure, usually ready the day after.
Getting ready for the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
