Newton questions
Do you cover Newton?
We do. Repair technicians travel to Newton from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Can you turn my avocado bath white?
Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
About our coloured bath resurfacing in Newton
Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. A full suite is generally done in one to two days. If you’re dealing with selling or letting a home with an old suite and faded or patchy colour, we can help, on whole bathroom suites, avocado, pampas and pink baths and coloured basins alike.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Newton as everywhere else we work. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

The process
Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a day or two, depending on how many items, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
- Each item is left to cure, usually ready the next day.
Preparing for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

Common problems we fix in Newton
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. The problem is usually the colour, not the bath.
The things customers generally mention when they call are:
- Faded or patchy colour
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- A suite that does not match a new bathroom
What to look for in a quote
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
- What aftercare is recommended
- Whether they match the colour on site
- Who will actually do the work
Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white turns it white without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
What you get with us
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
- We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- One visit for most repairs

Honest limits
A repair is not always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. We can’t 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)
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.
What we work on
- Coloured basins
- Coloured shower trays
- Whole bathroom suites
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
DIY repairs versus a professional job
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Newton. What changes the price is:
- How many items we do on one visit
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Newton. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Getting a price from pictures
Phone pictures are fine. Just make sure we can see:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
Most clients in Newton get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
