Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in Newbarns
We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. If you are dealing with a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and faded or patchy colour, we can help.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after the visit. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Work for landlords and builders
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Newbarns use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Questions from Newbarns
How quickly can you book me in?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
What happens next?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
Can you do the toilet too?
Talk to us first. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we’ll advise honestly before quoting.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Can tenants book a repair?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.
What coloured bath resurfacing costs
Resurfacing from £350. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. The main factors are:
- How hard the colour is to match
- The material and finish
- Access to the area
- What kind of damage it is
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.
How to get a fixed quote
You can usually get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A picture taken from further back
- Something in shot to show the size
- Any details about the material
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole suite, we can give you a fixed quote the same day in most cases.

What happens on the day
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Allow one to two days for a full suite from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- The surface is prepared and primed.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- We leave everything to cure, usually until the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Make sure the area is dry
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
Ask for a price

Should I try a DIY kit first?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a coloured suite means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing changes the colour with everything left in place. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Why book with us
- We leave the room as we found it
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- Generally one visit, start to finish

What we’re called out for in Newbarns
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. The problem is normally the colour, not the bath.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- Faded or patchy colour
- A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
Before you book anyone
- Who will actually do the work
- What preparation is included
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
When we would advise against a repair
A repair is not always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs will not 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)
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
Materials we work on in Newbarns
