Coloured bath resurfacing in Swarthmoor without replacing anything
We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. A full suite is normally done in one to two days. Whether it’s a dated coloured suite you’d like in white and selling or letting a home with an old suite, we can help.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee. Look after the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

Questions from Swarthmoor
How do I get a price for coloured bath resurfacing in Swarthmoor?
Resurfacing from £350. We give a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Is there any odour?
There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.
Can pets and children be at home?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Which areas do you work in?
The whole UK, including all of Cumbria. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.
Can a coloured bath be made white?
Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
What happens if you find more damage?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:
- What the surface is made of
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Access to the area
- What kind of damage it is
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. 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.
How to get a fixed quote
Phone pictures are fine. Make sure they show:
- Where you are, by postcode
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole suite, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a coloured suite means new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white turns it white without taking anything out. Our coloured bath resurfacing starts from £350. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.
Why book with us
- Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
- One price list for the entire UK
See our prices page and resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
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, a professional repair is worth it.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
