How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Newby
Most suites take one or two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. Whether it’s a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, we can usually put it right.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a coloured suite means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white turns it white without taking anything out. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Why us?
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- No need to remove anything
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- One price list for the whole UK

What we do, step by step
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes one to two days for a full suite. If anything looks different from your pictures, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.
- 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.
- We leave everything to cure, generally until the day after.
How to prepare
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Clear the area around the damage

Newby: your questions answered
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can you do the toilet too?
Ask us. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we will advise honestly before quoting.
Is there a guarantee?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Can a coloured bath be made white?
Yes. We resurface it in white with it left in place.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
