Coloured bath resurfacing in Old Tebay without replacing anything
We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. We regularly repair coloured shower trays, coloured basins and avocado, pampas and pink baths, and the jobs we see most are a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and a dated coloured suite you’d like in white.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll sort it. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

Repair or replace in Old Tebay?
Replacing a coloured suite involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white turns it white with everything left in place. Prices start from £350. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.
Why us?
- One price list for the entire UK
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- Usually one visit, start to finish
- Colour-matched on site

FAQs for Old Tebay
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.
Can you quote from photos?
Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Which areas do you work in?
Across the UK. Prices do not change with location.
Can a coloured bath be made white?
Yes. We resurface it in white with it left in place.
Is there any odour?
There may be a mild smell during the work.
When a repair is not the answer
We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- 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’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Coloured basins
- Whole bathroom suites
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Coloured shower trays
Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. There is no area surcharge for Old Tebay. The price reflects:
- Access to the area
- How hard the colour is to match
- How many areas need work
- Doing more than one item at once
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Send photos for a quote
When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- The material, if you know it
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
Send us a photo of the damage and one of the whole item, with your CA10 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Landlord and trade work in Old Tebay
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Old Tebay use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
The process
Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes one to two days for a full suite, and we leave the room as we found it.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
- The surface is prepared and primed.
- We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
- Once cured, normally by the day after, the suite is ready.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Open a window if you can
