Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping a coloured suite for a white one involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing turns it white without taking anything out. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

What coloured bath resurfacing costs

Resurfacing from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Newcastle Great Park. The price reflects:

  • Access to the area
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How much damage there is

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.

Quotes from your pictures

Phone pictures are fine. Make sure they show:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

The process

We begin by going over the job with you. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. You can expect it to take one to two days for a full suite, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.

  1. The room is protected and ventilated.
  2. Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
  3. The surface is prepared and primed.
  4. We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
  5. We leave everything to cure, usually until the next day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

Advice

When we would advise against a repair

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • 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 photos and we’ll say what we think.

Materials we work on in Newcastle Great Park

  • Whole bathroom suites
  • Avocado, pampas and pink baths
  • Coloured shower trays
  • Coloured basins

Newcastle Great Park: your questions answered

What areas do you cover?

Everywhere in the UK, Newcastle Great Park included. There’s no extra charge for travel.

When can you do it?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

What about the toilet?

Ask us. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we will advise honestly before quoting.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and you’ll get one combined price.

Can a coloured bath be made white?

Yes. We resurface it in white with it left in place.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.

Will there be a smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It clears as the materials cure.

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.

Signs you need coloured bath resurfacing in Newcastle Great Park

Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. It’s generally the colour that dates them, not the condition.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Faded or patchy colour
  • A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
  • A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
  • Selling or letting a home with an old suite

Questions to ask before you book

  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • Aftercare advice
  • Who turns up on the day
  • When it can be used again

10 questions to ask before you book

Work for landlords and builders

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we will arrange it.

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, then guarantee it for a year.

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 generally cheaper.
