About our coloured bath resurfacing in Newbiggin
Most suites take one or two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. Our technicians work on whole bathroom suites, coloured shower trays and coloured basins, and the jobs we see most are faded or patchy colour and selling or letting a home with an old suite.
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Lancashire. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Questions from Newbiggin
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Do you cover the entire of Lancashire?
All of Lancashire, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
What happens if you find more damage?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
What does coloured bath resurfacing cost?
Resurfacing from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send photos.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
How the visit works
Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Allow one to two days for a full suite. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to look after it.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- Once cured, normally by the next day, the suite is ready.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
Getting a price
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

What we are called out for in Newbiggin
Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. The problem is normally the colour, not the bath.
Contact us if you’ve noticed any of these:
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- A suite that does not match a new bathroom
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- Faded or patchy colour
What your quote should include
- How changes to the job are handled
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The material and finish
- What kind of damage it is
- Doing more than one item at once
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Quotes from your photos
When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- One picture of the whole suite
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
For a price in Newbiggin, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
Can I fix it myself?
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 normally cheaper.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
When we’d advise against a repair
To be straight with you, some problems need a different 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 will say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Whole bathroom suites
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Coloured shower trays
- Coloured basins
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a coloured suite means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing changes the colour without taking anything out. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Newbiggin. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
