Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
About our coloured bath resurfacing in New Lane
Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. A full suite is normally done in one to two days. Typical jobs include selling or letting a home with an old suite and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, on coloured shower trays, avocado, pampas and pink baths and coloured basins.
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Lancashire. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Landlord and trade work in New Lane
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

What we do, step by step
We begin by going over the job with you. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. Allow a day or two, depending on how many items, and we will keep you posted as we go.
- 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.
- Once cured, normally by the day after, the suite is ready.
Before we arrive
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

How we price coloured bath resurfacing
Resurfacing from £350. There is no area surcharge for New Lane. What changes the price is:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- What kind of damage it is
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The material
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for New Lane. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Send photos for a quote
Phone pictures are fine. Ensure they show:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Where you are, by postcode
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire suite, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
What we are called out for in New Lane
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.

When we’d advise against a repair
We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- 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)
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.
