Coloured bath resurfacing in Plawsworth without replacing anything
We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. A full suite is usually done in one to two days. We’re often asked to fix faded or patchy colour and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, across coloured shower trays, whole bathroom suites and avocado, pampas and pink baths.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Plawsworth and across County Durham. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

What else we do in Plawsworth
How we price coloured bath resurfacing
Resurfacing from £350. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We look at:
- How many items we do on one visit
- The material
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
How to get a fixed price
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Details of any past repairs
- One picture of the whole suite
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Natural light rather than flash
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and no obligation.
Your questions about coloured bath resurfacing in Plawsworth
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Is there any odour?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.
Do you cover Plawsworth?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Plawsworth and the rest of County Durham. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
How do I book?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
What does coloured bath resurfacing cost?
Prices start from £350. We give a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item with your DH2 postcode.
Are there extra charges for Plawsworth?

Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
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.
Repairing versus replacing in Plawsworth
Replacing a coloured suite means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing changes the colour without taking anything out. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
