Coloured Bath Resurfacing for Plantation Bridge homes
Resurfacing coloured baths, basins and trays in white in Plantation Bridge, carried out at your home and guaranteed for a year.
- Resurfacing from £350
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
How it works
You do not need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take one to two days for a full suite, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
- We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
- We leave everything to cure, normally until the next day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Let us know which floor the room is on

Plantation Bridge: your questions answered
Can a coloured bath be made 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 we clean up when we have finished.
Can you quote from pictures?
Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
What does coloured bath resurfacing cost?
Prices start from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Which areas do you work in?
We cover the whole UK, including Plantation Bridge and the rest of Cumbria. Send your postcode with your photos and we will confirm dates.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.
For landlords and businesses
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Plantation Bridge as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The material and finish
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: 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 quote
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A wider photo showing the whole suite
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Natural light rather than flash
- Any details about the material
To get a price, send a couple of photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
What we’re called out for in Plantation Bridge
Coloured suites were fitted in huge numbers in the 1970s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. It’s usually the colour that dates them, not the condition.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- A suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- Faded or patchy colour
Questions to ask before booking
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- How to look after the finish
- Who will actually do the work
- Whether the price covers travel
Repairing versus replacing in Plantation Bridge
Replacing a coloured suite involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing changes the colour without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.
