Coloured Bath Resurfacing for Salterbeck homes
Resurfacing coloured baths, basins and trays in white for homes and businesses in Salterbeck and across Cumbria. Free, fixed quotes from your pictures.
- Resurfacing from £350
- Faded or patchy colour
- A suite that does not match a new bathroom
Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
Coloured bath resurfacing in Salterbeck without replacing anything
A full suite is generally done in one to two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, with no new plumbing or tiling. Our repair technicians work on coloured shower trays, whole bathroom suites and coloured basins, and the jobs we see most are faded or patchy colour and selling or letting a home with an old suite.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

When a repair isn’t the answer
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t 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)
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Coloured shower trays
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Whole bathroom suites
- Coloured basins
Repair or replace in Salterbeck?
Replacing a coloured suite means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white changes the colour with everything left in place. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
What you get with us
- We leave the room as we found it
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
- We come to you, anywhere in the UK
- Colour mixed on the day to match

Common questions in Salterbeck
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.
Is there a guarantee?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.
Can a coloured bath be made white?
Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
Do you charge for travel?
We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
How it works
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes one to two days for a full suite. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.
- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- We key the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
- Once cured, normally by the following day, the suite is ready.
Preparing for the visit
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Let us know about parking or access
- Keep a parking space free if you can

Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- What the surface is made of
- How much damage there is
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Unusual colours or finishes
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Getting a price from photos
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Most customers in Salterbeck get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
For landlords and businesses
For anyone letting property in or around Salterbeck, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
