Common questions in Overton
Do you come to Overton?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Overton and the rest of Lancashire. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Can you do the toilet too?
Talk to us first. A toilet bowl is constantly wet, so we will tell you what will last.
Can you turn my avocado bath white?
Yes. We resurface it in white with it left in place.
What happens next?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
What areas do you cover?
We work UK-wide, and that includes Overton. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.
How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Overton
Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. Typical jobs include a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and selling or letting a home with an old suite, across avocado, pampas and pink baths, whole bathroom suites and coloured shower trays.
Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Common problems we fix in Overton
Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and many are still sound. It’s generally the colour that dates them, not the condition.
The most common problems we’re called about are:
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- Faded or patchy colour
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- A suite that does not match a new bathroom
What to look for in a quote
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- What prep work is covered
- How the room is protected while they work
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
Honest limits
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 repair
- Coloured basins
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Whole bathroom suites
- Coloured shower trays

Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
Repair or replace in Overton?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white changes the colour without taking anything out. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

What affects the price in Overton
Resurfacing from £350. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- How many items we do on one visit
- What the surface is made of
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How many areas need work
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.
Quotes from your pictures
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

- 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.
