About our coloured bath resurfacing in Preston
Most suites take one or two days. We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. Whether it’s faded or patchy colour and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, we can help, whatever the material.
You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

What coloured bath resurfacing costs
Resurfacing from £350. There’s no area surcharge for Preston. The price reflects:
- How many items we do on one visit
- What kind of damage it is
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The material and finish
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book.
Getting a price from photos
Phone pictures are fine, there is no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- A photo taken from further back
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Where you are, by postcode
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote.
How the visit works
We turn up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take a day or two, depending on how many items, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- Once cured, normally by the following day, the suite is ready.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
How to get a price
If you’re in Preston and want a price, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

What a repair can’t fix

- Fittings and taps (these are masked, not recoloured)
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a coloured suite involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing changes the colour without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
