About our coloured bath resurfacing in Skinburness
We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. We’re frequently asked to fix a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and faded or patchy colour, in coloured basins, avocado, pampas and pink baths and whole bathroom suites.
You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Your questions about coloured bath resurfacing in Skinburness
Are there extra charges for Skinburness?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Do you cover the whole of Cumbria?
The entire UK, including all of Cumbria. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll confirm dates.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Typically, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
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.
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a coloured suite involves a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Refinishing it in white turns it white with everything left in place. Prices start from £350. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Why Skinburness customers choose us
- Generally one visit, start to finish
- Fixed prices from your pictures
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- Honest advice, even when it means no job

How we price coloured bath resurfacing
Prices start from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
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 price
Phone photos are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- Natural light rather than flash
- A wider photo showing the whole suite
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
Upload a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you are in Skinburness, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
How the visit works
Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Allow a day or two, depending on how many items from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and how to look after it.
- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- We clean, degrease and repair any chips.
- The surface is prepared and primed.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- We leave everything to cure, generally until the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Make sure the area is dry
How to get a price
