Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in North End
A full suite is usually done in one to two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. We regularly repair coloured basins, coloured shower trays and whole bathroom suites, and people most often call us about selling or letting a home with an old suite and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

How it works
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. It normally takes a day or two, depending on how many items.
- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- The surface is prepared and primed.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- Each item is left to cure, usually ready the day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Keep a parking space free if you can

Advice
North End questions
Can you turn my avocado bath white?
Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.
What happens after I send pictures?
We come back with a fixed price. You’re under no obligation.
What about the toilet?
Ask us. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we will tell you what will last.
Can pets and children be at home?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
Covering North End
North End is about 5 miles north-west of Carlisle, in Cumbria. Clients in North End get the same service as everywhere else we cover: a fixed quote from photos, then a visit to do the work. North End is one of 438 places in Cumbria where we work. You can also see our page for Newcastle upon Tyne, about 56 miles away.
We work across the CA5 postcode area. That includes homes on Milton Lane, Station Road and Kings View and the roads around them. If you’re just outside North End, we cover Burgh-by-Sands (1 mile south), Moorhouse (2 miles south), Thurstonfield (2 miles south), Kirkbampton (2 miles south-west) and Cargo (2 miles east). Further out, we also cover Carlisle (5 miles south-east), Currock (6 miles south-east), Raffles (4 miles south-east), Botcherby (6 miles south-east), Morton (5 miles south-east) and Wigton (8 miles south-west).
Local landmarks in North End
We visit homes around Burgh by Sands School, St Michael's Church and The Greyhound Inn, among other places. Further afield, we also cover the area around Cumberland Infirmary (4.2 miles south-east) and Burgh by Sands Castle (0.6 miles east). For a walk, there’s Thurstonfield Lough.
Can I fix it myself?
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 usually cheaper.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

What we are called out for in North End
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.
You may need us if you’ve spotted:
- A suite that does not match a new bathroom
- Faded or patchy colour
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite

Repairing versus replacing in North End
Replacing a coloured suite involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white turns it white with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.
Why us?
- Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
- Free fixed quotes from pictures
- We leave the room as we found it
- A year’s guarantee on all work
See our prices page or guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.
Honest limits
Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. 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 pictures and we will tell you honestly.
Materials we work on in North End
- Coloured shower trays
- Coloured basins
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Whole bathroom suites
Work for landlords and builders
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll arrange it.
What coloured bath resurfacing costs
Resurfacing from £350. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. The main factors are:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How much damage there is
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed price
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. 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.
