How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Preston-on-Tees

Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there’s no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. Whether it’s a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, we can help, on coloured basins, avocado, pampas and pink baths and whole bathroom suites alike.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a coloured suite means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing changes the colour with everything left in place. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Our hiring checklist

When we’d advise against a repair

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

  • 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 before booking.

Surfaces we repair

  • Whole bathroom suites
  • Coloured shower trays
  • Avocado, pampas and pink baths
  • Coloured basins

How the visit works

Visits start with a quick look at the job together. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. Allow a day or two, depending on how many items, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
  5. Each item is left to cure, normally ready the day after.

How to prepare

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Related advice

DIY repairs versus a professional job

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

What coloured bath resurfacing costs

Prices start from £350. We price every job individually. The main factors are:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How much damage there is
  • The material and finish
  • How many items we do on one visit

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

Quotes from your photos

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • One picture of the entire suite
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

Most customers in Preston-on-Tees get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
